Dear Student,

Please consider attending this unique opportunity.

Steve

*Special Event: October 1, 1-2:30pm, on Zoom. (registration link below)*

Please join Planet Forward and your peers for this invite-only conversation
with an amazing young journalist, whose name you may not yet recognize but
whose star is quickly rising. Zinhle Essamuah <https://simplyzinhle.com/>,
who graduated from George Washington University, is a correspondent and
host on NowThis News <https://nowthisnews.com/> and also is the host
of its KnowThis
Live <https://www.facebook.com/watch/341163402640457/255247875980506/> on
Facebook. She just announced she'll soon be moving to NBC News.

Zinhle also has experience behind the camera as a documentary filmmaker,
with titles that include The Minority Vote
<https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7273264/>, about issues that faced
millennials during the 2016 election, and the award-winning Hands Up
<https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7272698/> (2015), which follows stories of
the Black Lives Matter movement.

In 2019 she moderated a United Nations Youth Climate Summit town hall, with
the UN Deputy Secretary-General. And earlier this year, Zinhle hosted
a one-hour
special documentary
<https://nowthisnews.com/news/hed-nowthis-and-discovery-climate-special-to-premiere-on-earth-day>,
released by NowThis and discovery+, centered on the broader challenges of
the climate crisis and including a one-on-one interview with Vice President
Kamala Harris.

During this live virtual event, students will have the chance to put Zinhle
in the hot seat to ask about her career as a journalist and filmmaker.
