We believe in the power of storytelling to create change and are proud to support organizations that uplift diverse voices and empower the next generation of changemakers like Youthcast Media Group (YMG) — a nonprofit that helps high school students from underrepresented communities tell powerful stories about the issues shaping their lives.
Last week, Anne Woodbury, Stephanie Wight and Juliet Thomas attended YMG’s Third Annual Student Showcase in D.C. to celebrate these incredible young journalists, where AP reporter Gary Fields put it best:
“Diversity is about difference of experience. Reporting a story is objective, but choosing what to report on is subjective. You tell the stories other people don’t see.”
