This is a video story I did as part of my capstone class for my journalism major at Elon. The assignment was as follows: In order to start telling other people’s stories, it is important to be able to be in the spotlight, so you gain knowledge and understanding of what it is like to have your words and life be documented. Personal vulnerability is not something typical journalists usually face, as we spend our careers asking other people to be vulnerable and share their stories. I learned a lot about myself as a person, and as a journalist throughout this project. This is Stop Talking, Molly: on why I am so passionate about journalism, and how I got here.
