Decolonizing journalism : a guide to reporting in Indigenous communities

McCue, Duncan 1971- (author.).

Summary: "Duncan McCue's Decolonizing Journalism is the only text in Canada that teaches aspiring journalists how to build respectful, reciprocal relationships with Indigenous communities when researching and sharing their stories. It is a textbook adaptation of an online guide from one of Canada's leading Indigenous journalists. Decolonizing Journalism guides students through building critical consciousness vis-à-vis Indigenous people and communities, teaches them how to apply their journalistic skills and minds to working with communities, and offers 9 exclusive interviews with Canada's leading Indigenous journalists and podcasters to provide students insight into the histories, processes, and obstacles central to decolonizing journalism and media from the inside out."--
