Dear MAC colleagues: Thank you so much for the prompt and overwhelming response. We now have a full slate of panelists and a moderator, with three members of MAC. This should be a great panel! Again, thank you for your support. I feel blessed to be a colleague! Joel Joel W.

We need a moderator who can understand issues around reporting on race and social justice. I was hoping to include MAC membership. We could possibly consider a fifth panelist if anyone has a particular research or creative interest in virtual reality, augmented reality uses for reporting on race matters. Please contact me directly if interested. I am a bit behind getting this together for AEJMC, so a prompt response would really be appreciated. Thank you, Joel Joel W.
