Dean Baquet is the executive editor of the New York Times and a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist. In February 2019, he sat down with Edward Wasserman, dean of UC Berkeley's Graduate School of Journalism, to discuss the 2016 elections and the future of fact-based journalism."I don't want to be a leader of the opposition to Donald Trump," he told Wasserman. "This is perhaps the hardest thing about navigating this era. A big percentage of my readers, and I hear from them a lot, want me to lead the opposition of Donald Trump. They don't quite say it that way, but what they say is, 'Why quote his tweets? Why go to his press conferences? Why not? Why not just call him a liar every day? Why not essentially just take him out and beat him up? What are you waiting for?' I think that would be the road to ruin, for a bunch of reasons. But, to me, the most powerful one is if you become the leader of the opposition, eventually the people who you're aligned with come to power, right?"This conversation is featured on On Mic, a podcast by the UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism.

FRONTLINE from PBS and the Investigative Reporting Program at UC Berkeley's Graduate School of Journalism produced an investigative documentary on labor trafficking happening today on U.S. soil. Reporters told the story of unaccompanied minors from Central America who were forced to work against their will at an Ohio egg farm, the criminal network that exploited them, the companies that profited, and how U.S. government policies and practices helped to deliver some of the children directly to their traffickers. The investigation uncovered widespread criminal abuse, and will be used as a Department of Justice Anti-Human Trafficking training tool for thousands of law enforcement officials and prosecutors. Watch the film: https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/film/trafficked-in-america/ In this episode of the Shorenstein Center podcast, Heidi Legg talks to Daffodil Altan and Adrés Cediel about the shoeleather reporting required to find and get access to people who had been trafficked in the U.S., and the need for cultural competency and language fluency for reporting stories like these. This episode is part of the Shorenstein Center's special series of interviews with the finalists for the 2019 Goldsmith Prize for Investigative Journalism. The Goldsmith Prize winner will be announced at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government on March 12, 2019. Music provided by ExtremeMusic.com

Abstract: Dr. Cammarota’s presentation focuses on Paulo Freire’s Pedagogy of the Oppressed and how the book proposes a critical pedagogy that structures learning around personal and collective emancipation. His talk also provides two propositions for implementing a critical pedagogy: 1) oppression is a current and persistent reality for many people and 2) the oppressed have the capability to liberate themselves from oppression. These propositions relate to the two goals of locating the causes of oppression and transforming both subjective and objective reality. Julio Cammarota is an Associate Professor in the UA Department of Mexican American Studies. Dr. Cammarota received his Ph.D. at UC Berkeley's Graduate School of Education. He has published papers on family, work, and education among Latinos and the relationship between culture and academic achievement. Cammarota has also co-authored a seminal article on applying a social justice approach to youth development practices. Currently, he is the director of the Social Justice Education Project in Tucson, Arizona, and the Anthropology and Education Program at the UA.
