Description
Very few people get access into the James S. Brady Press Briefing Room at the White House, and even fewer journalists of color do. In spite of the systematic attacks journalists of color—and in particular, black women journalists— receive from government officials and the President himself, they have a responsibility to report for their communities.
Maria and Julio are joined by two journalists who live this reality in the briefing room: April Ryan with American Urban Radio Networks and CNN political analyst, and NPR’s White House correspondent Ayesha Rascoe. They talk about the behind-the-scenes of covering the Trump administration from within the White House walls.
