Real Talk: The Mic is Ours
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — WISH-TV’s “Real Talk” is a series that gives a voice to the youth in Indianapolis, focusing on pressing community issues such as gun violence.
The series partners with youth agencies throughout Indianapolis, allowing young leaders to discuss topics they find important and receive training in TV and podcast production, project management, and community engagement.
Youth leaders were selected to highlight a series of topics that they feel are most important to them and their peers. They gather feedback from local stakeholders, decision makers, parents, and other youth agencies.
Monday’s program, “The Mic is Ours,” featured conversations with young leaders alongside experts they selected, addressing the issue of gun violence, which remains a persistent concern in the community. One of those experts was Chief Chris Bailey of Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.
Real Talk is brought to you by the nonprofit VOICES Corp., the Indianapolis city-county government’s Office of Public Heath & Safety’s division of reentry, and public relations firm The Holliday Collaborative Agency.
