Inclusive storytelling from Gaza and beyond with Patrick Gathara - Part 1

Send us a text

For the first episode of The Heart Gallery Season 2, I talk to Patrick Gathara, The New Humanitarian's Senior Editor of Inclusive Storytelling.  Patrick talks about what inclusive storytelling look like in a context where the news is changing by the minute, where echo chambers are swirling with recycled talking points, where mainstream media is saturated with dehumanization of whole groups of people, and all while a literal genocide on the people of Gaza is being carried out. We also discuss the state of inclusive journalism and the storytelling elsewhere in the world: what is going well, where we're falling short, and what we should demand more - and less - of from our media.

Part 2 will be uploaded on Monday, Nov 13. Episode blog post will be up then as well.
