(NNPA) – For 194 years, the Black Press of America has remained the voice of the African American community and the soul of the nation.
With more than 230 Black-owned newspapers and media companies comprising the National Newspaper Publishers Association (NNPA), the Black Press’s contributions have remained indelibly associated with the fearlessness, determination, and the striving for excellence of the African American community across the nation.
Wholly embracing the print, social, and digital worlds, the NNPA finished 2020, having broadcast hundreds of livestreams over its many social media channels and on its primary news site, www.BlackPressUSA.com.
The NNPA’s latest initiative into live broadcasts in 2021 is the new daily morning breaking news program, “Let it Be Known,” hosted by NNPA Newswire Senior National Correspondent Stacy Brown.
