Webinar: SFJ award winners on how they practice inclusive storytelling

In these turbulent, anxiety-inducing times, we need features storytellers more than ever.

They’re embedded in our communities, where they uncover our shared struggles and moments of joy. They take us into homes where families break bread, explore how personal style shapes confidence, and empower communities to tell their own stories of survival. 

Join us at 1 p.m. ET / noon CT / 10 a.m. PT on Wednesday, Nov. 13, as we host a virtual conversation with four journalists about their work. All four won 2024 SFJ Excellence in Features awards in Division 3 of the Inclusion and Representation in Features category.

Former SFJ President Margaret Myers will moderate.
