The South DeKalb Issue

As contributing editor, I oversaw the publication of Canopy Atlanta’s fourth Community Issue. The resulting stories drew from feedback from over 50 community members, and were either co-reported or co-published with Capital B, Decaturish, Reckon News and Atlanta’s NPR affiliate WABE.
