Moving the Race Conversation Forward

produced by Jay Smooth, based on a report by RaceForward.org

This seven minute video shares in an accessible way the report from Race Forward on mainstream media's errors in the way they report on race. By analyzing more than 1,200 newspaper articles and television segments, they found seven main categories that need improvement: individualizing race; false equivalencies; diversion from race; focus on 'government overreach'; prioritizing intent over impact; coded language and silencing history.
