On January 26, NPR White House Correspondent Ayesha Rascoe headlined a virtual event for the Justice & Journalism series, taking stock of the Biden administration in its first year, and looking ahead to the midterm elections.
A conversation with Laura Knoy, former host of The Exchange on NHPR, and questions from the audience, followed.
More than 800 people registered for the event, which was viewed that evening by 510 people. You can listen to the entire program here.
Rascoe’s coverage during two previous presidential administrations has included President Trump's 2019 summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in Hanoi, and President Obama's final NATO summit in Warsaw in 2016. As a part of the current White House team, Rascoe is also a regular on the NPR Politics Podcast.
