Continuing its new mission to visit communities battling income inequality, UNITY: Journalists for Diversity has announced that the coalition will hold its second regional conference for a gathering planned in Detroit. The regional event titled "Empowering The Detroit Story" on Sept. 12, will bring journalists around the country to Wayne State University for an event centered on media literacy, multimedia training, entrepreneurial journalism and discussions on tackling poverty. Ethriam Cash Brammer, associate director for the Center for Latino/a and Latin American Studies at Wayne State, said the university was happy to welcome UNITY to campus and believes the area needs to have an honest discussion on media diversity. "Detroit is a unique city with a very diverse population," Brammer said. "All of our voices need to be heard." Workshops will include building simple websites, investigative journalism, social media training and media engagement. Before the summit, syndicated cartoonist Lalo Alcaraz will hold a cartooning workshop for students in Detroit and Chicago Tribune Standards Editor Margaret Holt speak on media ethics to a Wayne State journalism class. http://www.laprensatoledo.com/Stories/2015/082815/unity.htm
