A panel discussion on both the current and historic portrayal of Haiti in the news media will be held Wednesday, Feb. 3, 6:30 p.m., in the Creative Space of Leimert Park\'s Community Build, 4305 Degnan Blvd., Los Angeles.
A magnitude 7.0 earthquake in the capital of Port-Au-Prince on Jan. 12 has left thousands dead and homeless and the infrastructure destroyed, yet much of the mainstream press coverage has tended to blame the Haitian people for their current predicament, from correspondents calling starving survivors \"looters\" to a prominent U.S. religious figure declaring that the country had made a \"pact with the Devil.\"
Erin Aubry Kaplan, journalist and former columnist with the L.A. Times, Joanne Griffith, freelance journalist and former correspondent with the BBC, and a representative of the Black Journalists Association of Southern California are the scheduled panelists.
This event is sponsored by the Ida B. Wells Institute.
A donation of will be requested at the door to go towards Haitian relief efforts. [Metered parking around Leimert Park and there?s a parking lot right across the street from Community Build/Ackee Bamboo, usually free.]
