KOSU Indigenous Affairs reporter Sarah Liese is among 16 journalists selected for the Association of Independents in Radio (AIR) New Voices fellowship.
The New Voices program selects a cohort of emerging audio makers from communities underrepresented in media. Participants are paired with a mentor and will attend a series of virtual workshops.
Liese (Diné / Turtle Mountain Chippewa) hopes to continue her work on heart-centered storytelling for Native American communities.
“I am deeply honored to have been chosen as a New Voices fellow,” Liese said. “I intend to use this opportunity to strengthen my skills as an audio reporter and continue being a vessel for Indigenous stories in Oklahoma. Ahéhee'!”
The five-month virtual program lasts from August to December 2024.
