Stop assigning journalists of color the 'racism beat' - Business Insider

July 26: A protester holds a sign that says, "Black Lives Matter" as the crowd of hundreds pass the Jumbotron of the American Flag in Times SquareHowever, they are often assigned the "racism beat," which is inherently a taxing thing to cover.Neha Maqsood is a Pakistani journalist.Visit Business Insider's homepage for more storiesAs a writer of color, I possess a distinct power.

This was an opportunity to chronicle the systemic disparity and prejudice that was widespread across the globe. Through my writing, I attempted to appeal to the average white person to view things from the perspective of a person of color – to step into our shoes and see how different life was from this side. Ultimately, however, I realized that race was not just a 'beat' – it was a lived experience.

Objectively laying out the facts, instead, allowed for 'a narrative of ignorance, stereotyping, and racist framing'; remaining passive to the perspectives of marginalized communities perpetuates a vicious cycle where people of colour are seen as simply belonging to the binaries of good and bad. White writers must examine the trends, analyse the data and immerse themselves in a community which isn't their own to comprehend the more intricate reasons behind systemic bias.
