How can we expect writers, especially those from marginalized communities, to refrain from taking a position on some of the most urgent and impactful issues of our times, including climate change, health care, and the mass incarceration of people of color?

Even more a part of this notion is the assumption that journalists, reporters, and editors are subhuman and expected to be on the periphery of the human experience. This assumption is dangerous and exclusionary, placing people on a level of objectivity that no one is capable of.
