Rosemary podcasts live from New Orleans in this episode pulling members of JAWS, a 50-year-old feminist women's organization away from workshops at their annual Camp to talk about their current diverse assignments, from national politics, to mentoring young women journalists in reporting careers that make a difference, to writing about isolation, disinformation and other indignities of the Covid age. JAWS For nearly 40 years, the Journalism and Women's Symposium has advanced the professional empowerment and personal growth of women in journalism and also advocated for more inclusive coverage of diverse experiences and culture. Advance women in the field, is the belief, and you transform the world.
