The Bison ONE Newsroom is a groundbreaking, first-of-its-kind partnership between a national media corporation and an HBCU journalism program—a partnership that honors the power of HBCUs as incubators of cultural and political transformation.
Blending in-depth journalism, real-time coverage, and heartfelt storytelling, this multi-media experience will serve as a pioneering blueprint for how narratives that attempt to obscure the humanity of Black people can’t be disrupted when Black institutions stand together and create something innovative, something lasting, something that is ours.
We are excited to bring this initiative to the forefront and set the stage for empowering the next generation of Black storytellers in a meaningful way.
