There's still time time to register for "Radically Rural," the annual community development summit for rural stakeholders to be held in Keene, N.H., and virtually Sept. 21-22.
This year's event will include seven tracks: Arts & Culture, Clean Energy, Community Journalism, Entrepreneurship, All in for Health, Land & Community, and Main St. Terrence Williams, president and COO of The Keene Sentinel, will lead the community journalism track, with three sessions:
- Covering the Divide: An exploration of how news organizations can better serve communities that are split over politics, the pandemic, policing, voting and more. Elizabeth Stephens, executive editor of the Columbia Missourian, will moderate the session. Panelists are Tony Baranowski, manager of special projects at the Cedar Rapids Gazette; Sara Konrad Baranowski, deputy managing editor at the Gazette; and Peter Huoppi, multimedia director at The Day in New London, Conn., and co-producer of the documentary "Those People."
- Better Judgment: How innovative newsrooms are changing their coverage of cops and courts to provide fairer, more equitable news reporting. Cierra Hinton, publisher of Scalawag, will moderate the session. Panelists are: Paul Cuno-Booth, freelance journalist and reporter on several alternative justice projects in New Hampshire; Molly Born, West Virginia multimedia producer and educator, now documenting West Virginia’s history and future; and DeLyah Jones, freelance journalist, community engagement consultant and journalism philanthropy program officer.
- Crazy Good: 50 ideas to make you a better journalist. The session will feature speaker Jeremy Caplan, director of teaching and learning at the City University of New York's Newmark Graduate School of Journalism.
