“Who Tells Our Story? Mili Mansaray on Black Media, Truth, and Community”

Who Tells Our Story? Mili Mansaray on Media, Truth, and Community  In this episode of We Keep Us Safe: The Movement, we sit down with Mili Mansaray, Senior Editor at The Kansas City Defender, for a powerful conversation on storytelling, media, and the importance of controlling our own narratives.  Too often, the stories told about Black communities are shaped by people who don’t live our experiences. In this episode, Mili breaks down what it means to build media that is rooted in truth, accountability, and community.  We talk about:  * Her personal journey into journalism and storytelling  * The mission and impact of the Kansas City Defender  * What mainstream media gets wrong about Black communities  * The power of independent Black media  * Why telling our own stories is essential to building community power  This is more than a conversation about media — it’s about truth, representation, and what it really means when we say we keep us safe.  Tap in and be part of the movement.
