Challenging the system. A victim of sex abuse 40 years ago who's lobbying for a change in the law. And an ex-inmate turned activist who's lobbying for prison reform. Plus, breathing life into Garifuna in the Bronx.

Challenging the Status Quo

219West, once the home of the fabled New York Herald-Tribune, is now the address of the CUNY's Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism. From their home base on 40th Street, just off Times Square in the heart of New York City, our student reporters fan out to neighborhoods across the city, in all five boroughs, to provide in-depth coverage of stories frequently overlooked or ignored by mainstream media. 219West looks at the people and the issues that move and shake our city’s communities -- stories that often fly under the radar --- and gives them air on CUNY-TV.
