The distinction between "local" or "international" journalists raises questions about trust, credibility, and control in global news. In this episode of Decolonise How? Patrick Gathara sits down with The New Humanitarian's Ali Latifi and Ahmer Khan to discuss power dynamics in crisis reporting, and why it matters. Decolonise How? is a new podcast by The New Humanitarian that examines the stories we tell about humanitarian crises. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-new-humanitarian-1146231/episodes/who-gets-to-tell-the-story-decolonise-how/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-new-humanitarian-1146231/who-gets-to-tell-the-story-decolonise-how.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
