Independent journalism is under grave threat in the Sahel region of Africa. In Mali, one community radio station shows the lengths to which local reporters go in order to keep their communities informed. Also: today’s stories, including how new curriculum in Ukraine prepares students for war; a look at U.S. programs designed to educate teachers on the “science of reading”; and whether local control could help preserve Gullah heritage on one South Carolina island. Join the Monitor's Ira Porter for today's news.
