There were just so many charms in my family oriented me toward issues that matter. And i think the combination of that and a fierce desire to do something about it led me to jounalism. I mean, when my dad and my mamma first tried to rent an apartment together,. They couldn't get one, but they just wouldn't rlease them. My mam would describe going to the coffee shops with her best friends, and and lewis never serve them. It reminded me of what's so true about reall powerful journalism, that it can touch us and take us out of our daily life and move us to not just powerful emotion, but to action.
