nostr:npub1s8c5mk68qn0erxrx5waqz7xxk39x5xx2367879eqcv270tqs4tvsf5ewgf Are you coming to nostr:npub1key55ax33gkl50uqemvl4khrtqrhzm7wzpc7fhseutt5ddkcwcrqgxlt3h after?

I'd be interested in coming to this but short notice makes it kind of hard. Doh. Thanks for the heads up.

The event is for journalists to learn about decentralized social media as a tool for bottom up rewiring of the media ecosystem.

We will have a journalist historian and open web advocate speaking as well as a journalist who works primarily with journalists in authoritatian regimes to talk about the needs of these folks.

I’m rounding things out with an overview of decentralized protocols and questions journalists should ask themselves when choosing where to spend their time on the decentralized web.

Some context that folks here might not be aware of: The NYC journalism community expermented with crypto journalism 5-6 years ago on a project called CIVIL and it did not go well. The focus of this event will be primarily on Nostr as a result.

We are working with journalists in the Journalism Accelerator program when they are ready to try out zaps in Nostr. I finished a call 10 minutes ago with one publication that is now ready to check them out.

If you know journalists who might be interested please encourage them to attend! Happy to have you and others in the area come if you are interested. Please register using the link!

One other thing to note, please register with a real name - the event will be checking people in at the door. Even if it’s just a first name. We’re not doing the checking - so you can maintain your anonymity with us.

Chicago based 😎🤙 🫂🫂🫂

Enjoy yall PV

I’m planning to go.
