Journalism & Media

Only a small percentage of journalism and media is created with an intention to engender deep understanding about current events; lift up underreported or misunderstood issues; include and amplify perspectives from independent voices; promote self-reflection, empathy, and mutual respect; and inspire civic engagement and action. As a result, large segments of the American public are misinformed, disengaged, and cynical about their role as civic actors and agents for social change.

We seek to strengthen and sustain an independent media ecosystem that investigates the actions of institutions, explores the implications of policies, challenges social norms, amplifies a multitude of perspectives, and creates opportunities for public conversations and individual and collective action on urgent contemporary issues.
