Blaming media outlets for this moment is valid. I also know so many journalists of color who tried to bring things up, point things out, report with integrity, and change how communities of color are reported; only to be repeatedly discouraged, dismissed and reprimanded by white editors and managers

PSA to my friends in California near the fires: breathing in wildfire smoke is really bad for you (even if it’s not super thick where you are) but if you have face masks (N95, KN95, etc) those can help a lot
