🔶 #24: "You are not here to save journalism. You are here to redefine it."

Hello and welcome back to the News Alchemists newsletter!

And a first welcome to new subscribers from Berlingske, WAN-IFRA, Democracy Fund, Schibsted, Maldita, Wick Communications, Al Jazeera, TRF, ABC, USC Annenberg, and Maharat Foundation 👋 You're among friends.

This is the last email I'm sending from Evanston, Illinois, before traveling back to London later this week. The time I've spent here at Northwestern University has been incredibly rewarding – rich in meaningful conversations about the purpose of journalism and what it should enable us to feel, think, and do.

Soon I will be sharing more about those conversations and what I learned from them, but the downside of such an intense experience is that, now that I'm almost at the end of it, I feel eeeexhausted... So after failing for the last thirty minutes to come up with something meaningful to share in this introduction, I decided to say, you know what, let's go straight to the links 📚

See you next week! 👋
