Davis Vanguard: Court Watch
Davis Vanguard is committed to transparent journalism, driving reform, amplifying voices, and exposing systemic injustices, particularly those affecting marginalized communities. Through our investigative journalism, Court Watch program, and Vanguard Incarcerated Press, we aim to serve those often neglected or mistreated in our judicial system and mainstream media. This includes members of the BIPOC community, the LGBTQ+ community, individuals with disabilities, the unhoused, and those who are economically disadvantaged.
