Journalist Charlayne Hunter-Gault has reported on Black lives for over fifty years, a career that came after she won a legal challenge to become one of two black students to desegregate the University of Georgia in 1961. Reporting for The New York Times, The New Yorker, PBS, and NPR, now she's released a book, My People: Five Decades of Writing About Black Lives, which compiles much of her writing throughout her career. Hunter-Gault is with us to reflect on her career, and the state of journalism today.
