Get Facts, Get Free: The Emancipator

A Word … with Jason Johnson

Should journalists work to end American racism, not just report on it? That’s what the Boston Globe’s new project, The Emancipator, is making its mission. On today’s episode of A Word, Jason Johnson is joined by its co-editor-in-chief, Amber Payne. They discuss The Emancipator’s history, and its vision for an anti-racist American future.

Guest: Amber Payne, co-editor in chief of The Emancipator at the Boston Globe
