About This Project

“We can’t find qualified minorities.”

Each of us has heard this time and time again: when we ask our bosses whether they interviewed any women or people of color for that opening they just hired, when we challenge conference planners who set panel after panel of monochromatic talking heads.

Are you interested in diversifying your newsroom or making sure your event is calling on a diverse group of experts? We hope you’ll find the journalists you’re looking for here. And of course, we’d love your feedback. Read more
