In this short but substantial discussion, BINJ Editorial Director Chris Faraone asks Bieber about iconic counterculture memories around Cambridge—from stories about protests that unfolded in the middle of Harvard Square where Out of Town News (now the KiOSK) was located, to those involving legends of music and film such as Joni Mitchell and Jimmy Cliff who cut their teeth in the neighborhood’s coffee shops or in some cases just made a short but indelible cameo in America’s cultural-intellectual capital.
The Boston Institute for Nonprofit Journalism produces bold independent journalism for Greater Boston and beyond.
Since 2015, BINJ has been producing hard-hitting news and analysis focusing on housing, criminal justice, the environment, government malfeasance, corporate corruption—and shedding light wherever it’s needed.
We work with some of the most experienced reporters in Greater Boston, and we also train dozens of emerging journalists each year to help them learn critical skills while providing quality reporting to our audience.
BINJ not only produces important stories; we also share our work for free with other community news outlets around Massachusetts, while organizing and leading at the regional and national levels of the nonprofit news industry.
We collaborate with other community publications and engage the public in civic educational initiatives
