About Us

BlackState is an online political and cultural news magazine. Online in some form since July 2000, BlackState’s content is sometimes serious and other times silly and fun. BlackState may be the longest continuously running online political and cultural news magazine featuring issues and topics concerning African Americans and the African Global Diaspora.

We’re different because we provide the historical context to events of today as well as a global analysis and perspective.

We love the culture.
