Vanessa De Luca on Journalism's Future

Mentorship, Media Evolution, and the Power of Perspective: An Interview with Vanessa

 

I still remember the first time I came across Vanessa De Luca. It was during the pandemic, a time of uncertainty for so many of us in freelance journalism. Vanessa was the Editor-in-Chief at The Root, and I had the opportunity to work under her leadership as a freelance writer. It was a much-needed source of income.

Being hired to write for The Root wasn’t just about the paycheck—it was about being part of something greater, something that spoke directly to our culture with intelligence, wit, and authenticity. Under Vanessa’s guidance, The Root thrived. Her editorial vision has always inspired me. 

I recently had the chance to revisit Vanessa’s impact on me in a conversation that reminded me why I’ve admired her work for so long.
