Uses audio storytelling to inspire a more just world. As a journalism organization committed to truth, we honor the rich wisdom and lived experience of historically oppressed and marginalized communities.
Since 1995, we produce “Making Contact,” a radio show and podcast that digs into the story beneath the story—contextualizing the narratives that shape our culture. Our team produces stories on critical issues, including the environment, labor, economics, government accountability, health, and race.
Through our Emerging Voices Fellowship program, we offer in-depth training for aspiring audio journalists and community storytellers based in Oakland, California. To date, we have trained ten storytellers to enrich the culture and create sustainability for Oakland’s communities of color.
