At 6:30 pm on Wednesday, June 9, 2021, please join the Friends of the Pembroke Center and four distinguished Brown alumnae for this timely virtual panel which will look at how journalism and the media have evolved in recent years to include more diverse perspectives and reporting that centers race and gender. We will explore this current media moment, its significantly broader lens, and how it reflects fundamental, parallel changes in our culture and politics. We’ll also delve into how we got here, where we're going, and why it matters.
