DC Black Journalists: Share Your Story Live

 

 

Story District, with support from HumanitiesDC, is looking for six Black journalists based in Washington, D.C. to craft and perform true, first-person stories about their lives and work. 

Selected participants will collaborate with a Story District coach over several months, then take the stage in April 2026 — a performance that will be filmed and shared widely. Journalist and scholar Sam Fulwood III serves as Humanities Scholar, joined by partners Journal-isms and the Washington Association of Black Journalists.

Apply by August 31, 2025
