Long ago we created #DanielPearl #Investigative #Journalism Initiative (DPIJI) named in memory of the journalist who was abducted and murdered in Pakistan in 2002 by terrorists while he was reporting a story for WSJ. The DPIJI, a true labor of love, provides funding to journalists to cover what is often unseen the workings of prejudice and bigotry. Since its founding the initiative has exposed deeply ingrained prejudices around the world before they have become well known https://dpiji.runi.ac.il/
