Rebuilding Local Journalism talk April 27

“Rebuilding Local Journalism” is the topic of the April 27 LHENA Talks series. This talk will focus on how local journalism is being rebuilt in Minneapolis. Christensen will talk about her work with the Southwest Connector, and Hoffman will talk about her work with Southwest Voices. How are these two local journalism organizations informing and engaging the community? How are they building community and helping advance local solutions? What are the challenges of local journalism today? What are the opportunities? What has been the response from the community to these new local news organizations? What impact are they making? The speakers will answer these questions and more, and then take questions from the community. The online event will be held from 7-8 p.m. on Zoom.
