I take heart that you are continuing to teach students journalism, in the fullest sense of the way in which your own work participates in journalism. Thank you for that. And also for illuminating the conditions for the press in India, which I think many of us (certainly me) don't really know what we need to know. You put your gifts to the good work, Ami.

I'm glad to hear that you're still teaching journalism classes, especially at a time like this. I still think about the creative non-fiction class I took with you four years ago.

Important always to remeber that "the journalist's job is to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable"

Oh my. I had no idea about India. I mean I had an inkling from following your writing, but this is more dire than I could have guessed. We actually just rewatched "Scoop" last night about the journalists who interviewed Prince Andrew about his relationship with Epstein. We need journalists otherwise how do we know what's happening. Thank you for sending your students into the world.
