My name is Julia Luz Betancourt.
I am a multimedia journalist, editor and audience engagement expert. I cover activism, social movements and abuses of power.
Writing is my first love. My work has been published in Prism, YES! Magazine, Truthout, GEN-ZiNE, Z Network and more. My stories center how the most marginalized people are impacted by issues. Right now, I’m focused on how these communities are being targeted by the federal government.
In 2023, I picked up a camera for the first time. My goal is to humanize the people who devote their lives to fighting for a just future. I’ve photographed protests, strikes, and shot editorials for magazines.
I am a creative who loves finding several ways to tell a story. I’ve worked on audience teams for global and national media, using compelling visuals to grow and more deeply engage audiences.
