Me & my colleagues @washingtonpost are #PulitzerPrize finalists for coverage of environmental racism "illuminating how communities of color have disproportionately suffered from dirty air, polluted water & lax or nonexistent environmental protection." https://t.co/s7WffmEoiR

So much awe and gratitude to @sabby_robinson @arielplotnick @rsamer for crafting this beautiful radio story from my reporting on climate trauma.

Amid an onslaught of disasters, it's good to tell a story of healing.

Incredibly proud to have been part of this project and awed by @CAKitchener and @RennieYS's impactful reporting. We're continuing to cover this post-Roe moment and will have more stories on #postreports soon ...

[Caroline Kitchener @CAKitchener]

All but one of the segments included in this submission came out before Roe fell. Grateful to @rsamer, @RennieYS, @maggiepenman and the whole #postreports team, who devoted time and care to this issue early on.

Very proud of the coverage we made (and will keep making!) together.

As a Ward 6 resident and mom of a toddler, I found this really helpful! Really grateful this is finally happening.

[Charles Allen @charlesallen]

Parents eagerly awaiting COVID vaccines for <5, here's a quick thread on how the city will get these out! Pending CDC approval, shots will become available most likely on Tuesday, June 21 via walk-up appointments at DC's COVID Centers - no prior appointment needed!

[Robin Amer @rsamer]

So proud of my colleagues across the @washingtonpost newsroom for this honor, the work and its impact.

In other words: Environmental racism is an insidious and common problem

And @griffwitte's story about the lack of clean drinking water in Jackson, Miss. https://t.co/rZXW7EF2Ad

[Robin Amer @rsamer]

The look of shock in my eyes says it all! So grateful to be honored alongside my amazing colleagues from @washingtonpost's climate team, especially Darryl. He spearheaded this coverage and is one of the most fearless journalists I've ever worked with.

[Darryl Fears @bydarrylfears]

I’m thankful for my selection as a Pulitzer finalist for national reporting of environmental racism w/my colleagues @eilperin @brady_dennis @JohnMuyskens @salwangeorges @rsamer. Our story package was nominated by @Krissah30, whom I’m hugging tight in this photo & @TrishWbelli

[Robin Amer @rsamer]

@Cycleboredom @velocioapparel is top notch. I just restocked on winter bib tights & other gear for my new post-partum, um, physique and they make sizes up to XXXL! I feel very sleek in all my new clothes despite my changing body.

[Renita Jablonski @Renitaski]

This ep of #PostReports is stunning. I had read the print version of @CaitJGibson's moving piece and wasn't prepared for what the listening experience would be like. Eloquent. Empathetic. Life-affirming. Please listen. Tagging the production team in next tweet

[Darryl Fears @bydarrylfears]

When White residents forced a scrap metal shredder w/a bad environmental record out of their wealthy neighborhood, Chicago allowed it to relocate to a Latino community. This amazing podcast w/my colleagues @rsamer @martinepowers explains what happened next
