"(The Indigenous Journalists Association's Freelancer Database) was created to support and spotlight IJA members while connecting them with vetted organizations looking to hire journalists, photographers, editors and other media professionals." via @indigenousja.bsky.social
Devastating.
To those that have:
- dedicated themselves to serving their communities.
- lost a key pillar in their community.
Devastating. But hopefully not a deathblow.
Hopefully, enough people:
- ask, "What now?"
- do what needs to be done.
- support what comes next.
Hopefully there's hope.
Congratulations to all of winners of the @indigenousja.bsky.social's 2025 Indigenous Media Awards!

I remain committed to diversity of community & ideas. I still believe in a supportive, inclusive, collaborative & cohesive environment w/ a focus on access & opportunity for all. I still actively seek collaboration, & I respect individuals w/ differing perspectives, backgrounds & areas of expertise.
Proud of our @sdstate.bsky.social student media and the talented and driven students that create, produce, publish and broadcast the content as well as the amazing @sdsucojo.bsky.social faculty supporting their work.

I'm willing to test the waters here, but feeling a little like the John Travolta meme...
