To mark the one-year anniversary of the murder of George Floyd, VPR and Vermont PBS hosted a virtual event, (Un)fractured: Covering Race and Racial Injustice Issues in Our Communities, at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, May 25 to explore how Vermont media has covered race and racial justice.
(Un)fractured: Covering Race And Racial Injustice Issues In Our Communities
Watch on YouTube here. Hosted by VPR’s Connor Cyrus and Jane Lindholm, the event asked guests and the community at large, “How has local media coverage of race and racial justice issues reflected your reality? What would you like to see moving forward?” Please write to community@vpr.org with your comments.
VPR will offer additional special coverage on race and racial justice over the next month.
