Disasters, Invisible and Visible
What the folks at LA Taco, not the LA Times, figured out was that while it was impossible to have on-the-ground reporting from sweeps happening across a metro area as colossal as LA, we live in a time where most everything is documented and uploaded to social media in near-real time. They took to compiling these social media videos and reports into a vertical video Daily Memo that simply runs down where ICE has conducted raids that day across the vast LA area.
Along with a bit of interesting Chicago history, Dan shares some thoughtful reporting recipes that journalists, amateur or otherwise, can use to keep people informed about ICE activity in their communities.
