关于我们
The Uproot Project wants to bring diverse voices to the forefront of environmental reporting. As a network, we’re dedicated to advancing the careers of journalists of color who’ve been historically underrepresented in this field, imbuing journalistic coverage with critical and fresh perspectives. The Uproot Project will connect its member journalists with publications, offer training, and build community as we navigate the work ahead reporting on the environmental crises of our time. The Uproot Project is open to journalists of all races, ethnicities and backgrounds, but its goal is to uplift and support journalists of color who have been underrepresented in the journalism industry for far too long. Our group is currently funded by and assisted operationally by Grist, a nonprofit, independent media organization dedicated to telling stories of climate solutions and a just future. While we plan to one day operate independently, our first priority is to establish the network, welcome new members, and build a network that transforms who tells the stories of one of the most important issues of the century. The old narrative doesn’t work anymore — it never did. It’s time to take it out by its roots, and start anew.

Climate Fiction Creative Manager and Brand Community Partnerships Manager at Grist Magazine
Hot of the press! Another Imagine 2200 climate fiction story from Grist! This story was originally submitted to our very first Imagine contest, and while it didn’t win then, it stuck with us. Ever since, we’ve been wanting to find a way to reflect the story's unique format — the tracked changes and comments on a Word doc — in a digital story. https://lnkd.in/dZyfY7UU #climate #solarpunk #climatefiction #clifi #lgbtq #fiction
