The discussions that came up around intersectional feminism and the exclusion of WOC from the original steering of the Women's March has me thinking about what we can do to better support women with fewer privileges than the average white, heterosexual female.
And since we know honest journalism is going to be paramount to surviving the next four years, I wanted to start compiling a list of lesser-known news outlets geared towards marginalized members of our country. I asked my Deaf friend for a couple of news sources that are important to the Deaf community, and that either have captions or transcripts for those of us who are ASL-impaired.
She suggested to me:
DTV NEWS: www.facebook.com/DPANTVNEWS/ (videos are all captioned)
The Daily Moth: www.facebook.com/TheDailyMoth/?fref=ts (not captioned, but frequently provide transcripts)
Like these pages. Make an effort to like/share articles that resonate with you. Publications such as these live and die by their social media presence, and facebook's algorithms mean that if people aren't liking/commenting/sharing, your viewership goes down.
Ok, anyone else? I'd love more recommendations
