In class we talked about the big questions we want the Bronx Covid Economy Reporting project to engage with.
These are the meta questions:
Why was Covid so bad here?
Why did more Latinos than other race/ethnic groups die from Covid?
How did the legacies of redlining and structural racism shape what happened in Covid?
How/Did communities come together in crisis to support eachother?
How can the economy be rebuilt in a way that works for more people?
Those are the big, almost philosophical questions. In order to get listeners thinking about those questions in the piece we produce, we need to first ask smaller, more concrete and specific questions of the people we are interviewing.
What are the five questions we should ask each of the people we interview in order to get them talking?
