In 2027 we will be celebrating the 200th anniversary of the birth of the Black press in the United States. We will be launching new initiatives, public programs, online resources, digital collections, teaching materials, and more.
We'd love to hear from you! Drop a line to jccasey@ucsb.edu
We are a growing team of researchers, librarians, archivists, and technologists. We are committed to re-discovering the extraordinary histories of the Black press in the US and beyond from 1827 until the turn of the 20th century.
