April Ryan: Under Fire The annual Winter Gateway Series is an effort organized by Northeastern Crossing, a cross-departmental initiative that seeks to improve neighborhood relations through meet-and-greets, local artist exhibitions, gateway mixers, and more. This year’s event featured journalist, political analyst, and author April Ryan discussing excerpts from her latest book, Under Fire: Reporting from the Front Lines of the Trump White House. She shared her thoughts on the state of the nation and her experience as a black reporter in the Trump White House.
