For 100 years, Medill has trained the world’s best storytellers. Deborah Douglas ’89 is no exception. Deborah Douglas, the Eugene S. Pulliam Distinguished Visiting Professor of Journalism at DePauw University and senior leader with The OpEd Project, is an award-winning journalist and the author of “U.S. Civil Rights Trail: A Traveler’s Guide to the People, Places and Events That Made the Movement.”
To prepare for her new book, Deborah traveled throughout the South to visit places significant to the Civil Rights Movement. In this episode of Intersections, Deborah shares on the multitude of projects she spearheaded, how a focus on the Black community has guided her life’s work as a child of the Great Migration, and some unforgettable advice that we all should remember, regardless of our career path.
