Founded in August of 2019, Sahan Journal is a nonprofit digital newsroom dedicated to reporting for immigrants and communities of color in Minnesota. Our diverse staff creates exceptional journalism: coverage that truly represents the changing face of Minnesota and recognizes that democratic engagement and power belong to everyone. Our stories reach audiences across many platforms, including our website, social media, video, newsletters, and community events. To reach more audiences, we share our stories with small community papers and with the state’s biggest mainstream newsrooms, in print and public radio.
