Before the pandemic, I had a wild idea: a resource for journalists to learn from restorative justice practitioners how to be less harmful and more healing. After 3+ years, thanks to amazing support and @freepress, today that resource exists: freepress.net/blog/7-tips-jo…

@jsamditis @newmarkjschool Awww you’re very nice. Thank you for this. Made my day!

hey look it's two of my fav @newmarkjschool alumns 🤩

@fancycomma @kristine_ish Thank you so much for hosting us! A really fun and I hope useful conversation

Your Brain on Journalism: A Chat with Allen Arthur and Kristine Villanueva youtu.be/fk_WPGU8500?si… @LissomeLight @kristine_ish

@kristine_ish @fancycomma Such a blast! Thanks for hosting @fancycomma!

So happy to have been a part of this convo @fancycomma! And with my big brain buddy @LissomeLight too ☺️

@brazooklyn @newmarkjschool SECONDED

I hope @newmarkjschool is working on an official statement about 1) why the #EngagementJ program was paused 2) When it will be resumed 3) Why the decision was unilateral 4) When will alumni be invited to discuss the future of the program 5) What the timeline for 2/4 looks like 👍🏼

@miguelpaz @jeffjarvis @terryparrisjr @Brizzyc See? Engagement. You listened and closed the loop. That’s what this program does!!!!

@LissomeLight @jeffjarvis @terryparrisjr @Brizzyc There you go, @jeffjarvis & @LissomeLight ❤️

I’m breaking my Twitter hiatus to say that @newmarkjschool deciding to pause its powerful, one-of-kind engagement journalism program is a profoundly terrible decision. Aiming for brevity but let’s see…

@jeffjarvis @terryparrisjr @miguelpaz @Brizzyc I thought you’d like it!

@LissomeLight @terryparrisjr @miguelpaz @Brizzyc I'm framing this tweet.

Also I will add: if this is a pause, help us understand why, for how long, and how to end it constructively. Because right now everyone thinks the school is trying to kill the program. If we’re wrong, help us understand. If we aren’t, we want to be involved then too.

So it goes without saying but I’m saying it: I love the program and it changed my life. For real! I also love the teachers I had and all the students I got to share the experience with in my year and others. I hope @newmarkjschool will reconsider. Or at least talk to us.

@brazooklyn @lmechegaray @Brizzyc @jeffjarvis @newmarkjschool Definitely a disproportionate number of us are actors. We like story, we like listening, we like trying to understand other people… I guess it makes a strange kind of sense. Love this program and the people in it so dearly.

@lmechegaray @Brizzyc @jeffjarvis @newmarkjschool I love it how some of us came from an acting background - you, me, @LissomeLight - and we all found this program that really spoke to us, and we found a new purpose. It’s such an inclusive program. Such a shame.

@elonmusk Hey @elonmusk maybe you don’t care but here you go. You should check the reliability of your sources before spreading false things created to drive a user’s engagement rather than inform them accurately.

@LauraLoomer Strange that election officials from pivotal regions attended a far left conference when they’re supposed to be impartial

I am in Washington DC reporting on the secret election summit hosted by CEIR, which is funded by Mark Zuckerberg! I just confronted Election Officials from Maricopa County, Arizona and Georgia and asked them why they are attending this HYPER PARTISAN, Soros tied and Zuckerberg funded conference to discuss the 2024 elections. They called the police on me. Videos coming soon! Read my report here: loomered.com/2023/04/21/exc…

@AlfredoCasares @CojoInstitute @soljourno @hotzthoughts @bhmotta Not SoJo specifically but I created this resource with Free Press: freepress.net/blog/7-tips-jo…

Dear network of sojo friends: we at @CojoInstitute are designing a workshop on solutions journalism and restorative justice. Any case or example that we shouldn't miss? Thanks! DM´s and alf.casares@gmail.com @soljourno @hotzthoughts @bhmotta
