The Triibe

The TRiiBE is a digital media platform that is reshaping the narrative of Black Chicago and giving ownership back to the people. Its original works in journalism and documentary, alongside creative writing and video, capture the multifaceted essence of the Black experience in pursuit of truth and liberation. The TRiiBe is approaching its eighth year and experiencing a period of growth and national interest in its journalism work and editorial methodologies. Its five-year strategic plan lays out a path for the organization to be fully financially and structurally operational to execute its vision and contribute to the Chicago local news ecosystem.
