Friend—

If we’re going to save democracy with an inclusive press and a free and open internet — we have to get to work! Free Press organizers and advocates are working in communities all over the country to ensure that journalists, policymakers and advocates just like you have the tools and knowledge they need to change things for the better.

Have a look at some of our recent workshops and trainings that would not have been possible without your commitment to Free Press:

Community Mapping: Educating Gannett

News Voices Director Vanessa Maria Graber and News Voices Program Manager Alisha Wang Savson presented a community-mapping workshop to 28 editors who work at Gannett-owned newspapers from across the country. The workshop gave participants tools to engage Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) communities.

Building Bridges: Connecting Reporters and Residents

Vanessa Maria also spoke at WHYY’s Neighbors & Newsroom Summit. The event focused on ways to build relationships and collaborations between residents and reporters.

Fostering Sustainable Journalism: Policy Solutions

Co-CEO Jessica J. González took part in a five-part webinar series at Columbia University’s Tow Center for Digital Journalism. The series explored the role that media policy can and should play in fostering vibrant and sustainable journalism.

Media Power Collaborative: Exploring the History of Media Policy

In December, Free Press launched the Media Power Collaborative under the leadership of Senior Director of Journalism Policy Mike Rispoli and Policy Fellow Sanjay Jolly. This ambitious project is bringing together media workers, movement organizers and researchers to figure out next steps for the future of journalism. In January, the collaborative hosted a discussion featuring Sanjay, Senior Director of Strategy and Engagement Joseph Torres, and allies Nan Rubin and Dr. Letrell Deshan Crittenden. The conversation focused on the history of media policy and organizing in the United States.
