Black Church and Black Press Unite to Empower Black America

A major coalition of Black faith organizations, led by leaders from the National Baptist Convention USA, Church of God in Christ, National Baptist Convention of America, and the National Newspaper Publishers Association (NNPA), has announced a strategic partnership to address systemic disparities affecting African American communities nationwide. The collaboration unites two historically influential institutions in Black America—the Black Church and Black Media—to create a unified approach to longstanding inequities in healthcare, education, criminal justice, economic opportunity, and access to capital. This partnership aims to replace fragmented responses with a consolidated voice grounded in shared values, spiritual conviction, and cultural empowerment.
