Welcome to The Authentic Voice: The Best Reporting on Race and Ethnicity, a Web site that supplements the book & DVD set by the same name (Columbia University Press, 2006). Here, we’ll feature a teaching guide, new stories and links to additional resources – all aimed at helping journalists, educators and the public get better at handling one of the country’s most profound and challenging issues -- relations between people of different races and ethnicities.
The Web site, like the book and DVD, features stories honored in the Let’s Do It Better! Workshop on Journalism, Race and Ethnicity at Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism. It allows us to continue the discussions sparked by the newspaper and television stories highlighted in the book and on the DVD. The site will also feature a number of additional award-winning stories from the Workshop.
We believe the book, DVD and Web site will help working journalists, college students and others by offering examples of excellent work, chapter-by-chapter analyses of the stories, links to tip sheets, and interviews with the winning journalists about handling everything from getting people to speak candidly about race and ethnicity to writing with authority and depth. Please feel free to give us your feedback.
