The National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) has developed student journalists and promoted diversity in newsrooms for 40 years. The Rochester chapter of the organization (RABJ) has supported that mission in our community for the last decade. Our panelists discuss the impact of both the NABJ and RABJ, and provide a preview of the Salute to Excellence Gala on November 7, which will honor African American pioneers in Rochester media and award scholarships to students.
