Celebrating Five Years of Dismantling the Status Quo

Since our launch on April 4, 2017, we've evolved from a scrappy set of freelance journalists with a dream inspired by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. into an award-winning outlet building a progressive model for independent, nonprofit news. We think that's cause for celebration!

Put on your dancing shoes and join us as we toast five years of impactful journalism and showcase local Black excellence.
