Who We Are
Our mission is to Reconnect News to Black Culture. We believe stories are powerful—and that access to accurate, relevant information can be both liberating and lifesaving. But when our communities are disengaged and disconnected from the news, how can we make the informed civic, economic, and personal decisions that shape our future?
When news is created for us, by people who understand our lived experiences, it doesn’t just inform—it resonates. It reflects our values, speaks our language, and becomes part of our culture.
We envision a world where Black communities have our own trusted news channel—one that speaks directly to us, empowers us to act, and keeps us connected, civically engaged, and economically strong.
