Hi, I'm Aysha Khan.
I’m a journalist fascinated by how people are working for justice, in ways large and small.
Currently I work as the managing editor at the nonprofit news site Next City and as the deputy managing editor at nonprofit outlet Analyst News. My background is in religion journalism: My in-depth coverage of American Muslim communities has been published by Religion News Service, a nonprofit wire where I spent several years as a staff journalist, as well as in the Washington Post, Associated Press, Boston Globe and other national outlets.
I hold degrees in journalism from the University of Maryland and in Islamic studies from Harvard Divinity School. I've been a fellow with the Solutions Journalism Network, International Center for Journalists, GroundTruth Project, Maynard Institute for Journalism Education, Muslim Women & the Media Training Institute, and Journalism & Women Symposium.
