Changing Dominant Media Narratives
Listen now
Description
In a time when the information we consume is often curated or reinforced by what we like on social media or the news outlets we follow, Mukhtar Ibrahim is working to shift the narrative by giving immigrants and communities of color the kind of committed, responsive news coverage that we all deserve.  In this episode of I So Appreciate You!, co-hosts Nadege Souvenir and Melanie Hoffert explore the complexities of journalism and the importance of intentionally changing the dominant narrative with the publisher and CEO of the Sahan Journal. “The way you shape and frame a story really matters. And who tells the story matters. That’s why I founded the Sahan Journal, so we won’t have to have that tension or questioning of how we put together a story, because as long as we’re following the basic journalistic skills and principles, everything will just move on.” - Mukhtar Ibrahim   Links Sahan Journal website Sahan Journal on Facebook Sahan Journal on Twitter Sahan Journal on Instagram Mukhtar Ibrahim on LinkedIn Mukhtar Ibrahim on Twitter Mukhtar Ibrahim on Instagram
