Comments for The Washington Informer
The Conrad Hilton Hotel in Washington, D.C., pulsed with history and urgency as the Black Press of America gathered for its Annual National Leadership Awards and Reception.
“Democrats need to spend money now with the Black Press,” Cummings told “Let It Be Known,” the Black Press morning news show, on the red carpet.
Despite its contributions to the U.S. historically and today, the Black Press, two years before its 200th anniversary, is fighting for its life.
Attorney Ben Crump, known as “Black America’s Attorney General,” took the stage, with a plan to uplift the Black Press in a major way.
“That’s why I’m making this donation to the Black Press,” Crump declared, his words cutting with urgency.
