Shooting Video For My Digital Video Production Class ✨

WEST GERMANY. West Berlin. August 11, 1988. A message is seen painted on the wall at Potsdamer Platz: “Berlin will be wall-free.” A little more than a year later, on November 9, 1989, the wall finally came down.

On this International Women’s Day, I am paying tribute to Martha Gellhorn, a fearless war reporter whose sagacious dispatches from conflicts spanning the Spanish Civil War to the Vietnam War paved the way for future generations of female journalists.

I finally got my first digital camera!!

Anne Morrissy Merick (1933-2017) was a pioneer in the field of journalism, especially in advancing women’s rights and opportunities in the field. In 1964, she managed to persuade the Pentagon to reverse an order that would have barred female reporters from accompanying troops on the front lines of the Vietnam War.

She attended Cornell University, and was the first female sports editor at the university. She was well-known for her efforts to fight against sexism in reporting, and published a book on her experiences in 2002.

Travelling in Europe with my journal and Polaroid 📸📖

Highly recommend this book of collected essays written by Arab women journalists! ✨

Pursuing photojournalism and photography was the best decision I’ve ever made.
