“My co-workers and I would text each other in the mornings like, ‘Are we even allowed to be working? Should we even open? Because this isn’t safe for any of us. It’s not safe for the customers.’” - student Kennedy Halwa, as told to @UVicWriting's Melody Powers

“Nothing was left. Just rubble. There were glass puddles next to the burnt vehicle shells. Our house was gone. Even the foundation didn’t look intact.” - artist Genevieve Clarke, Hay River/ K’átł’odeeche/Kakisa fire, 2023, as told to @UVicWriting’s Jon Miller and @seanmholman

Together, we are telling the human story of climate change so we confront its inequities and injustices. The @nna_ccj's citation is a powerful recognition that this story can be told in collaboration with disaster-affected communities.

The citation, which honours experimental journalism that transcends “categories, newsrooms and the industry,” belongs to the educators, journalists, students, and disaster-affected community members who came together to create the Climate Disaster Project.

Martin Bauman (HELL OF A RIDE out now)
🧵 If you know me well enough, you'll know I've been working on a book for a long time. It's a book about a very long bike ride, but really, it's about pride, shame, and the things we carry with us. And it's coming out NEXT YEAR. Thanks to @PottersPress for believing in it. 1/3
