1️⃣ Resource of the Week*

Exclusive Freelancer Discount: Join Narratively Academy for "Reporting & Writing With an Anti-Oppression Lens"

How can we be good, objective journalists while also crafting stories that challenge systems of oppression and fully respect the people whose stories we want to share with the world? Narratively Academy’s first-ever Professional Development Intensive: Reporting & Writing With an Anti-Oppression Lens is a unique opportunity for working journalists to connect with peers and explore all the intricacies surrounding how to report and write with a justice, equity and harm-reduction lens.

Because we know that most freelancers can’t afford the kinds of professional development opportunities available to newsroom employees, we’ve reserved 10 seats in this course for freelancers and/or recently unemployed journalists, at a deeply discounted rate (75% off) from the listed price. (That’s $95 instead of the standard $395.) Just use the code FREELANCER when signing up.
