Our Impact
Since our founding in 2003 by Daniel B. Tisdale, who learned what having an independent voice meant from his sharecropper grandmother and grandfather in Alabama Winnie Tisdale and Thomas Jefferson Tisdale, the love of having a voice from his uncle, Charles Wesley Tisdale, owner of The Jackson Advocate, and the art of publishing from Andy Warhol at Interview Magazine, we’ve:
- Published over 61,000 articles and photographs celebrating Harlem’s unique voices across our platforms: Podcasts, Newsletters, Events, Shop, Website, Social Media Sites, etc., platforms.
- Showcased 500+ local artists, entrepreneurs, small business owners, electeds, and community leaders and awards like the NAACP Game Changer Award and the Alignable Business of the Year Award, to name a few.
- Reached millions of readers globally (France, Canada, Japan, Great Britain, etc.,), spreading Harlem’s influence far and wide to other Harlem’s around the world.
- Launched initiatives supporting local businesses and youth education programs, like Harlem AIDS Blanket, including, H.Y.P.E. established in 2010, with Columbia University’s, Institute for Urban and Minority Education, IUME with assistant Director, Veronica Holly, to recruit and train the next generation of publishers in Harlem, and for Harlem World Magazine.
