Some feedback:
“This course made me think about the kinds of stories we aren’t doing, and the voices that can be too easily overlooked. This course gave me an insight I didn’t have before into how to change that.” – Michael Purvis, Managing Editor, Village Media
“The diversity of speakers was the best part! Often in the quest for diversity there is a danger of tokenism. But in this case it was clear that the speakers were the best in their field/beat.” – Minu Mathew, New Canadian Media
