Media 2070, a project committed to radically undoing harm in the U.S. news system, is holding an exclusive self-care space for 20 BIPOC journalists on June 25 @ 1 p.m. ET.
The Reparative Healing Space will feature a short introduction to media reparations, Media 2070's decades-long plan to center Black narratives in the media, a safe space discussion and a half hour of meditation/yoga/tapping techniques led by the News Yogi.
"I was a journalist for quite a few years before transitioning into public relations and this idea came from knowing first-hand how tough working in news is," said Tianna Mañón, organizer of the event with Media 2070. "Our goal is to get people together, discuss a few shared experiences and then return to our bodies. A lot of journalism requires you to disassociate with what your body needs and this space helps you get back into your skin, but also leave with a few tools and resources to re-center the next time work stresses you out."
The space requires a short application, which can be filled out here. All applicants will be notified by the 21st.
