I had Feelings about a lot of the stories in the @Global Voices newsletter this week. https://mailchi.mp/globalvoices/theres-a-lot-going-on-in-the-world?e=f7bb7bf68c
your Sunday @Global Voices news roundup, curated by yours truly! This week including smog in Pakistan, a Chinese-built dam in Tajikistan, nail art (art mde from nails, not the other kind) and much more! https://mailchi.mp/globalvoices/support-local-news-everywhere?e=de3c12a999
for the Philadelphia Inquirer, I wrote about the importance of a free press to democracy and how it's not just investigation, scandals, & poll-driven predicting. Authoritarians don't care about scandals. We need to focus on bearing witness, humanizing, and contextualizing.

@npub1xh82...jgne it makes me so happy when people notice these things!
just love this review πŸ’œπŸ’™πŸ’œ "it provides plenty of heart-stopping adventures and moments, clever investigative work, and a heartfelt romance. I found it a delightful novella, with a wonderful mix of elements that align beautifully."
am thrilled to be joining @Global Voices, an organization that I have long admired as a reader, a humanitarian, and a organizational sociologist - and, of course, as someone who believes that information is one of the keys to an equitable, empathetic, and democratic world.
