In Conversation with The Black DeTour

Black FreeThinkers

Please join us as we speak with Jay Colby, founder of The Black Detour. We'll discuss independent media and why it's needed given our current socio-political environment. The Black Detour is an independent media outlet that advocates for Black people to not only be empowered but informed on issues in the Black community. We’re part of a growing movement in America to empower Black people all across the United States. At our core, we stand with Black people and want our voices, opinions, and thoughts heard. Jay Colby is a writer, journalist, and entrepreneur. Jay founded The Black Detour to not only change the often negative perception of Black people in mainstream media but to create a space where Black people can voice their opinion freely. He is also a college graduate and has dedicated his life to helping the disenfranchised. We want to encourage independent journalism and this is a step in the right direction. You can find them on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook as well.
