We just returned from Hawaii, where we were honored to host a media training aimed at improving coverage of traffic fatalities and serious injuries. This handout gives a good overview of some of the themes and problems we commonly see with traditional reporting. This style contributes to harm by normalizing these traumatic events and obscuring the wider societal responsibility to protect each other. Thanks to Ulupono Initiative for hosting us and sponsoring this work. And thanks to the amazing Hawaii media, who were so gracious about listening and thinking through the implications.

New report from Transportation Choices Coalition And Ethan C. Campbell finds “jaywalking” tickets are issued disproportionately to Black Seattleites and that a majority of WA state residents would support repealing these laws, as has been done in a growing number of states and cities. The movement to #legalizewalking is something our firm has been involved with in a number of cities and states. And we’re proud to support this effort in Washington State. Crossing the street shouldn’t be a crime and often we’re not doing a good job of providing safe crossings (or ensuring drivers yield at them) in the first place. https://lnkd.in/gXBsAAe2
