Testimonials

“NABJ offered me a familial space to learn and grow as a journalist and I’ll always be grateful to have had a hand in its programming.”

-Niani Scott ’21

“NABJ provided a safe space for Black journalists to truly discuss the things we care about. In class we learn through a white lens but surrounding yourself with people who look and think like you helps provide a wider application to the lesson we are learning. Journalism is also about networking and there is no network like NABJs.”

-Tati Perry ’20
