Capital B is a local-national nonprofit news organization that centers Black voices, audience needs and experiences, and partners with the communities we serve.

Our national team produces in-depth journalism on topics of crucial importance to Black people across the country, such as, politics, health, criminal justice, the environment, and rural issues.

Capital B Atlanta and Capital B Gary are the first two in a growing network of local newsrooms anchored by Capital B’s national hub. Our local newsrooms publish need-to-know information — such as how to find affordable housing, apply for benefits, and vote — civic journalism, and accountability reporting, all informed by intensive community listening and engagement with Black residents. We aim to be an antidote to the misinformation, disinformation, and low-quality, low-context news that clouds our information pipelines. Capital B offers clear, accessible reporting on a local and national level that’s tailored to the needs of our audience and free for all. Capital B is news you can trust.
