Welcome to our debut episode of Writers Room, where WARR Media Editorial Director Kyle Means engages writers of all backgrounds and disciplines in in-depth conversations about their careers, their lives and their craft.
In our opening Writers Room session we welcome Jamie Nesbitt Golden of Block Club Chicago and Twitter fame as @thewayoftheid. A true Chicagoan, Jamie speaks with Kyle from the site of her coming of age as a child of Bronzeville and 47th Street. Learn about Jamie's roots here as well as her path to journalism and what she thinks about the particular brand of community journalism she engages in today. Plus, she also engages on Obama's legacy, Chicago's departing and arriving mayors, her love for trash TV, the value of speaking truth to power and telling dick jokes on Twitter.
Make sure to check Jamie's work at BCC as well as her awesome Twitter account and get more info on her event with Feminista Jones here.
