Danny McArthur of Tupelo, environmental justice reporter, will present “A Conversation about Southern Journalism,” Nov. 7 at 6 p.m. in the W. O. Benjamin Fine Arts Center auditorium at the Itawamba Community College Fulton Campus.
McArthur, who is employed by the Gulf States Newsroom, a regional collaboration among NPR and public radio stations in Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana, focuses on individuals most vulnerable to climate change’s effects and the communities disproportionately impacted by environmental hazards and poor public policy. A graduate of the University of Georgia, McArthur previously spent three years as the community voices reporter for the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal.
The presentation is part of “Reflecting Mississippi: Finding Yourself in Mississippi’s Reflection,” made possible by a grant from the Mississippi Humanities Council. Additional presentations are scheduled throughout 2022-23.
