Communities Around the District is the class Web site for Race, Ethnic and Community Reporting at American University’s School of Communication. This journalism class was designed by Prof. Angie Chuang, based on her experiences covering communities of color at The Oregonian, Hartford Courant and the Los Angeles Times. The class was offered for the first time spring semester 2008. This Web site showcases the work of the 21 undergraduate and graduate journalism students in the inaugural class. Our goal was to explore the ethnic enclaves and diversity of our own community, the Washington, D.C., Metro area.
This site was designed by M.A. journalism student Cristina Fernandez-Pereda, and sponsored by the AU SOC Center for Social Media.
The students of Race and Community Reporting are: Jessica Arencibia, Ava-joye Burnett, Janine Cooper, Danny Escoto, Cristina Fernandez-Pereda, Radina Gigova, Katherine Gypson, Noelle Harmon, Janel Knight, Jeffery Lambert, Juliana Monsalve, Uzo Nnabuihe, Norma Porter, Dorry Samuels, Laura Schuetz, Lisa Tanger, Kelly Toves, Camille Tuutti-Winkler, Samantha Tyrka, Katie Unthank and Adina Young.
