Alberta Commey speaks to fellow students about her views on the media.

Alberta Commey is a student at Southeast High School with an interest in journalism. She helped lead our first NPR Illinois LISTEN session at the high school during which we asked students about their views on the media. The session was also designed to identify citizen journalists who can report on issues important to underrepresented communities. Commey reported on the event and the experience on her fellow students.
