I’m putting together a reader of around 20 articles for my students this year. These are pieces of journalism, not academic works, and I’m hoping to showcase a variety of stories, writing styles and places in it. The idea is to have them read great writing, learn about some key events and provide a starting point for discussions of issues in journalism, especially in foreign correspondence.
Right now, I have the following:
So, a fair amount of Africa (and there’s more, I want to include something by Michela Wrong as well, and I need to include the 1994 South African election (but I can’t find a good enough article), I need something on the fall of the Berlin wall or the collapse of the Soviet Union, but I can’t find the right one.
I have nothing on India, and am reluctant to include Dalrymple, since he’s more travelogue than journalism.
I have only one set in central America, and nothing in South America. Recommendations?
I have nothing from Oceania?
Possibly something lighter, less war-focused?
Is there a great example of sports reporting for a general audience I could include?
Environmental issues?
More women?
More less-white people? #
Any suggestions welcome, below in the comments, or direct to me.
