The Company
The Intersection Magazine LLC is a Black-led local news organization reporting on Black and people of color in Prince George’s County, specifically South County. The Intersection is a part of the Black Press, which has a long tradition of serving the Black diaspora internationally and locally. The Intersection uses narrative storytelling to uplift, educate and challenge.
The Intersection reports on the convergence of tech, religion, and local politics. Our journalism includes narrative-style reporting, movement, and solutions journalism. The Intersection operates with the assumption that religion plays a role in Black people — and other people of color— life experiences. Whenever mentioned by the interviewer, we will incorporate such experiences. Additionally, The Intersection upholds journalistic values: integrity, fairness, accountability, and to do no harm.
Our Reporting
Our Approach
Movement journalism: (M.J.) seeks to tell the stories of community members impacted by local government policies.
Solutions journalism: This is a kind of journalism that looks to report on how community members are seeking to solve their own problems. SJ seeks a data-driven approach to storytelling.
* These combined approaches help to provide a fuller picture of events, spotlight residents’ commitment to their neighborhoods, and participation in community flourishing.
