About 70 women gathered at Poynter to discuss women in journalism as part of an “Edge of Change” Colloquium that celebrates change in the 21st century. Inspired by a book edited by June Nicholson, Pamela Creedon, Wanda Lloyd and Pamela Johnson, we asked these women to describe a moment in their journalism careers that serves as a reminder of what women have overcome, what they can accomplish, or the work still to be done. Here’s what some of them said.
