I mourn for Aviva, and for every individual lost to gun violence in Kansas City and beyond, many of whom we never get to read about. Whose stories don’t make the news. Who lived full lives, had people who loved them. Who had dreams. My heart breaks today and every day for them.

There’s a lot of outrage over last night’s killing in the Crossroads. Good. We should be incensed. But please, Kansas City, don’t forget that all of the killings in our city are tragic. Please, feel outrage every time a life is lost, whether “it could have been any of us” or not.

A month ago, I unexpectedly lost my journalism job. My role as founding executive producer of @WPLN 's first daily show @ThisIsNashville was abruptly eliminated and I was terminated immediately. I hate that it happened, but I’m so proud of what we built over the past 2 years. 🧵

May Erin Langhofer rest in peace. May Michael Pittman rest in peace. Michael was killed at 32nd & Indiana Thursday. There are parts of our city where it feels normal when someone gets killed. Remember your outrage the next time someone is killed, no matter where, no matter who.

As for what’s next for me, stay tuned. I’m cooking a few things up… But mostly, I gave a lot to this show, poured my heart and soul all the way in. Now, I need to give a little to myself. P.S. I’m staying in Nashville for now. Hang out with me!

. @PaigePfleger called 40+ people to pull off this feature story and its corresponding @ThisIsNashville episode on TN's Dept. of Children's Services. It's powerful stuff. Listen back if you missed it. So fulfilling to edit and provide a place for this kind of journalism.

Nashville's first & most lucrative business was the buying, selling of Black men, women & children. To learn more about what life was like for them, I went with @learothawms + @The_Compact to an elusive island on the Cumberland. What's the connection? Find out on @WPLN at noon

This Is Nashville changed the civic dialogue in our city. It created a space for discussion that didn’t exist before with the kind of intentionality we had with our sourcing, our community partnership and our focus on centering lived experience. I am so proud of that.

In recent weeks, several friends have told me, a journalist, “I don’t buy it. I’m not worried about the coronavirus.” They think “the media” has blown it out of proportion. With a smile and gentle language, I’ve given the following PSA. 1/

So, when I decided to report on a homicide that took the life of a teen last December, I made a decision. I would pair that story, an important one, with a story of resilience. I would shine light on the work those teens are doing to change the narrative, to stop the violence. 2/

A thread: Recently, a friend told me he didn't like the way @AOC gestures with her arms when she speaks. Something like "I just can't." Got me thinking about how powerful women with powerful words are *just not palatable,* to men especially, but not exclusively. 1/

The impact we made in our first year and a half on air is immense. In that time, we interviewed 1,500 people. Yes, 1,500! Not including those we interviewed on background to inform our show every day.

My whole life is just endless coffee-stained notebook pages filled with wildly intricate abstract drawings I've made during phone calls. It's like an obscure language I'll never be able to read. Arguably not the best use of my pen during a reporting call but it works for me.

@kcurCST My two cents? Don't feel like you *have* to go to college immediately, especially if money is a concern. Don't underestimate community colleges. If you go to college, work a job on the side. Stay in touch with the world outside of your campus. It's invaluable.

We accomplished so much in such a short time. Forget the multiple state & national awards we raked in from our first 10 months on air. What’s more, to me, is that we provided an immeasurably valuable service to this community. What a privilege to have led that effort.

@kcur @The_MIP TL;DR? It's a big deal. After 23 years, an April hearing was Ricky Kidd's last chance at freedom. His lawyers argued he was innocent & denied a fair trial. Today, a Judge agreed. Unless @jeanpetersbaker orders a new trial, Ricky Kidd will be free @kcur
