Ok here goes. This question is NOT for my Caucasian followers.
Since last night I have been trying to look up news sites specifically for the black community so that I can incorporate it with the mix of stuff I already do. I am asking this question because I believe we need to foster an environment first for discussion so I wish to do a small part in that if I can. I have 12 sites that were recommended on lists already from google search however I noticed an issue.
(Sorry, that was for a different thread entirely!)
@misterfive No problems dear. You do not have to apologize.
@WhiteRose I mainly check https://newsone.com
My other sites are local (Barbadian) and Caribbean websites which are too localized for this audience. I think I can count the Caribbean people on CoSo on the fingers of one hand
@Pat_Walrond Thankyou. Newsone is actually one of the sites I have as tab so I shall keep that up and check it as I bounce around for incoming new articles.
@Pat_Walrond Pat, seriously thank you for replying. many of us care about CoSo and all of the members here. We do wish for everyone to feel comfortable here. ❤️
@WhiteRose I check out theroot.com, thegrio.com, and reddit.com/r/BlackPeopleTwitter on occasion. However, there is black centric news/perspective on a lot of mainstream sites too; just have to be willing to dig a bit.
Edit: atlantablackstar.com gets aggregated into my news.yahoo.com feed too.
@netsjetsfan Alright, I have the root, the grio, and yes, for example nbc has a section for nbcblk it is called with articles related to the black community. I do however usually toot those stories already because they tend to fall into also the "latest" part of the site news. Thank you . I didn't however know about the reddit.❤️
Ps. I also have Atlantic tab ready to go. I am glad to see I am on the right track. Thank you Thank you so very much.
@WhiteRose no problem, good luck! https://www.lipstickalley.com/forums/ Is another. I think it’s geared more towards black women though.
@WhiteRose I truly appreciate your reaching out. The sites I visit are all-encompassing so there are stories of the famous as well as articles on community and political issues from the black perspective.

@n8evans ❤️ OH wow, thank you so very much. I did see ebony on a list however I didn't know how some would feel about the site. I shall include it tho. I appreciate your list and response. 🤗
@n8evans Btw I do like Roland. I have watched him before on occasion
One is that the sites for the black community which were listed do not update as frequently with stories as other sites. Another is that I am not sure that stories about famous people really is something I feel will add to any real good discussion. So the question is:
What sites do you go to mainly(remember I do not want replies from my Caucasian followers please.)
