The Somali Bantu Community Association Media Guide
The SBCA is committed to reciprocal exchange of ideas across cultures. To this end, please approach our staff and participants with respect for their time, energy, and stories. A best practice for accurately reporting our story is to center the narrative on community-led change. Western culture is obsessed with the “hero narrative,” which falsely teaches that single figures are responsible for social justice work, such as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. for the Civil Rights Movement. As Soul Fire Farm says in their own media guide, “The truth is that movements are comprised of many organizations and individuals taking risks, demonstrating leadership, and contributing ideas and work. The media has a role in telling this truth.”
