Emily Rizzo, she/her, is a freelance journalist and audio maker based in Philadelphia. She previously covered the Philadelphia suburbs for WHYY, Philly’s NPR member station. Rizzo’s work has appeared on NPR, Chalkbeat, Kensington Voice, and Next City. Before journalism, Rizzo produced documentary films and experimental audio documentaries. She’s most interested in covering education, censorship, labor, and housing insecurity, and holding powerful people and institutions accountable.
By making himself visible as an artist from the neighborhood, painting and sometimes throwing pottery in the street, Lugo hopes to show others that that path is possible and that there’s already “ingenuity and artistry and creativity” in Kensington.
