In this special episode of The Bulletin, Executive Editor Marvin Olasky leads a conversation with Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Caitlin Dickerson. Dickerson spent weeks on the ground in the Darién Gap, a dangerous jungle passageway from Columbia to Panama that immigrants from all across the world take by foot as they make their way to the United States. Caitlin grew up in the Catholic church, and her winding journey to award-winning journalism was peppered with telling stories about humanity in crisis.
