James Westman

James Westman is a student journalist at Humber College in Toronto, and one day if ChatGPT 5 does not cut most news outlets’ staff in half, ideally a full-time paid journalist. He has reported on the ground of the 2016 Republican National Convention, the self-proclaimed “Freedom Convoy” both in Ottawa and Toronto and Trump rallies in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. James has been a diagnosable American politics junkie for at least 10 years, but you will never hear him say Canadian politics is boring. If you ask him, he will exclaim that could not be further from the truth. His beat areas include political extremism, rising authoritarianism, irreversible, exponential, catastrophic anthropogenic climate disruption and the prospects of nuclear war and an ensuing nuclear winter. He wakes each day to an alarm featuring academic and author Noam Chomsky discussing the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists’ Doomsday Clock. He is a lot of fun at parties.

John Wong Headshot

John Wong

Wong, is an aspiring visual storyteller, studying a one-year Journalism Graduate Certificate program at Humber College. Originated from Hong Kong, and was exposed to a place with cultures from East and West and various inspirations. He developed an interest in photography and videography from a young age. Still, it was Journalism fired up his passion, and then he worked as a video journalist for a few years right after he finished his degree in Sociology in Hong Kong. He believes in the power of visual storytelling, as every frame has its own story to tell, representing a strong signal that a person captured in a particular photo communicates with the audience through that frame. The frame speaks for the person’s emotions, thoughts, or some sense of the situation through a photographer’s capture of a particular frame or moment; that’s the power of visual storytelling.
