Our Mission
The News Today strives to connect you with the movements, individuals, and viewpoints that are promoting the vision of a more just, equitable, and sustainable planet. We enhance your understanding of the issues, contexts, and voices that drive the news beyond the surface. Our journalism is thorough and committed to factual reporting, yet we actively support movements for change, recognizing that journalism plays a vital role in highlighting pathways for collective action. Thus, we engage our audience not as passive consumers, but as active participants—ready to engage in the pursuit of a better world.
Our platform emphasizes the insights and perspectives not only of scholars and commentators but also of grassroots activists engaged in social movements for change—the individuals leading the charge against injustice. We operate as a nonprofit media organization, and support from our viewers and readers is essential for delivering authentic, engaging journalism. While we utilize various channels, our primary focus remains on digital video journalism. We believe our coverage achieves its greatest impact when it is accessible to and involves a diverse audience. We aim to reach beyond the choir and avoid solely targeting those already engaged. Collaboration and partnership are key to our journalistic efforts, as we believe this approach exemplifies the world we aspire to create.
We recognize that the challenges faced by the residents of this majority-minority city, such as unequal access to resources like education, clean air, and transportation, mirror those encountered by people worldwide. Our local reporting keeps our community informed about city happenings, but we also aspire for these narratives to resonate with those who share in the global struggle.
