The flyer overviews homophobia and transphobia (as they relate to the asexual spectrum), compulsory sexuality, the intersection of the asexual spectrum with race and dis/ability, pathologization, sexual assault, and problematic media representation.

Domestic violence affects tens of millions of Americans every year. Yet media outlets mostly treat incidents as 'cops' items, if they cover them at all, as opposed to treating domestic violence as a public health problem. Our free two-day symposium will help journalists understand the root causes and promising prevention, intervention and treatment approaches. Plus participants will be able to apply for grants to report California-focused projects.

The pandemic has unleashed a tsunami of misinformation, lies and half-truths capable of proliferating faster than the virus itself. In our next webinar, we’ll delve into what one of our speakers has termed “the natural ecology of bullshit” — how to spot it, how it spreads, who is most impacted, and how to counter it. And we’ll discuss reporting examples, strategies and story ideas that incorporate these insights and effectively communicate to diverse audiences. Sign-up here!
