Press freedom is under attack, but for some communities the limits of that freedom have always been deeply felt. Watch the recording of our panel on incarcerated journalists’ fight for press freedom that marked last year’s World Press Freedom Day.

If the publication models of the digital age won’t allow us to work in dignity, then workers will continue to build our own alternative structures, like our 1st VP Abigail Higgins did with The 51st poynter.org/business-work/…

We know that's right - glad you're getting the digital justice you deserve, Angel, and hope you and other creative workers will join us in organizing for a media industry that doesn't flagrantly exploit freelance labor.
