Being What I Couldn’t See

Join us at Oak Hill Country Club on June 14th at noon to hear from Amal Elhelw, Multimedia Journalist for WORC-TV. Amal will talk about how the journey of a Muslim-American woman in broadcast media is only a small piece of a paradigm shift in how we approach telling local stories to represent a wider range of viewers.

Amal Elhelw is a Rochester native and Multimedia Journalist for WROC-TV, a CBS affiliate TV station. As an Egyptian-American and daughter of an immigrant, Amal is working to provide a sense of representation that is lacking in local news while living her dream of telling unique and powerful stories that matter to the community she calls home.
