Jan 27, 2021 12 PM Eastern
Alatha’s father says he’s more than a dancer – he’s a Mover. Using African electronic “Gqom” dance, The Mover helps kids in the township of Khayelitsha to transcend the grips of poverty and abuse and find their superpowers. The Mover is also one of the few single fathers in the township. And while he has helped many kids find freedom, he still has difficulty getting his own daughter to break open and find her own powers. But in a tender moment together, this is all about to change. Explore Gqom dance and movement to ignite your own sense of freedom.

From NABJ President Dorothy Tucker: Insurrectionists who attacked media must be held accountable. News organizations must act now to ensure journalists' safety - new attacks are planned.
NABJ shares the concerns expressed by the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) as stated in its alert (https://cpj.org/2021/01/cpj-calls-for-accountability-for-attacks-on-media-during-us-capitol-assault/).
"The violence displayed toward the media during the assault on the United States Capitol has no place in a democracy. Individuals who threatened and assaulted journalists must be held accountable for their actions,” said CPJ Program Director Carlos Martinez de la Serna.
According to reports from ABC News and NBC News, the FBI has issued an advisory to law enforcement about planned attacks across the country at all 50 state Capitols starting Jan. 16, and also in Washington, D.C.
We call on our members to continue to take precautions to protect themselves and appeal to their media companies to initiate additional security protocols inside and outside the newsroom, as stated in NABJ’s security advisory this past weekend. News organizations must act now to ensure the safety of all journalists. Read more: http://bit.ly/3btRwh5
#NABJ Security Advisory Issued:
As you know, these are dangerous times for our country and our profession, especially with the most recent violent physical attacks during the Capitol insurrection.
As journalists continue to be targets of extremists, it is reasonable to assume there may be more attacks in the days ahead. Given the chaos in Washington, D.C., state leaders are now reassessing their security protocols and we urge media owners to do the same by taking immediate steps to provide heightened security and implement protocols to protect our members inside and outside of the newsroom.
We're asking news managers to assess protocols & be proactive in providing extra security, assign teams of reporters instead of sending them alone. Members don't hesitate to alert managers of suspicious behavior/threats.
