The recent attacks on federal funding for NPR and PBS are a direct threat to democracy and violate the Constitution. Public media has long been a trusted source of news and educational programming especially for historically underserved communities.

NABJ strongly opposes government interference in journalism and stands with NPR, PBS, and the many Black journalists and media professionals who work in public media.

These efforts to defund institutions that report facts in an age of misinformation and disinformation are deeply troubling. We urge lawmakers to defend the First Amendment and protect public media.

NABJ mourns the passing of Linda Lockhart, a trailblazing journalist and dedicated NABJ leader who helped shape the very fabric of our organization.

From her distinguished career at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, where she served in multiple roles including reporter, copy editor, makeup editor, night city editor, wire editor, and Metro section editor to her pioneering service as one of NABJ’s first non-founder board members, Linda’s voice helped define the soul of Black journalism.

She also served as NABJ Secretary under Vernon Jarrett and played a pivotal role in drafting NABJ’s original constitution, embedding her vision and values into our foundation.

We are forever grateful for her service. Her legacy lives on in every newsroom and in every journalist she inspired.
