Germantown Info Hub and Resolve Philly are proud to announce that Pryce Jamison has been selected as this year’s Equitable Cities Reporting Fellow.
This yearlong fellowship is hosted by Next City in partnership with GIH and Resolve Philly, and it will focus on solutions journalism tied to Germantown and Philadelphia at large.
Jamison began his journey with GIH last year, as a contributor first, before becoming our Engagement Reporting Intern. And then later, as our Engagement Reporter.
In that time, Pryce has covered the neighborhood’s buildings, zoning meetings, and development conversations. Now, as a reporting fellow, he’ll continue telling stories that connect Germantown and Philadelphia to broader issues of housing, displacement, and community resilience.
“As a newsroom serving a hyperlocal region of Philly, we are looking forward to using Germantown as a model for wider city and national issues, connecting bigger issues to our small, but mighty, neighborhood,” says GIH editor, Rasheed Ajamu.
“We are especially excited to officially welcome our former intern, Pryce Jamison, as this year’s fellow.”
Pryce is a recent graduate of Cabrini University’s Digital Communications program, where he edited the student-run Loquitur News Media. He also gained reporting experience with the Bucks County Courier Times (now PhillyBurbs) and the Chestnut Hill Local, covering everything from business development to arts and culture.
Next City emphasized how this fellowship will strengthen local and national coverage.
“Our publication has deep roots in Philadelphia and we’re excited to deepen our footprint there, especially through this partnership with one of our longtime collaborators,” says Aysha Khan, Next City’s managing editor. “Pryce knows his community very well, and we know he will deliver stories that serve it while also helping our national audience of urban planners and city builders understand what’s working.”
Founded in Philadelphia in 2003, Next City’s journalism centers marginalized voices while amplifying solutions to the problems that oppress people in cities. Its Equitable Cities Fellowship, established in 2014, offers journalists from underrepresented backgrounds the chance to report on solutions in areas like displacement and housing.
This fellowship exemplifies how local, community-centered reporting can have a ripple effect. By grounding coverage in Germantown, Pryce will highlight solutions that not only matter here but also provide insights for communities across Philadelphia and beyond.
GIH and Resolve Philly thank Next City for choosing us to be partners in this fellowship cycle. And we also send thanks to the Knight Foundation, whose support allows this fellowship to bring underrepresented voices to the forefront of the conversation about cities and their future.
Lastly, we give our best wishes to Jamison, who we know will use this opportunity to advance his journalistic wit and ability.
