Constitution and By-Laws
Preamble
We, the Members of the Triad Association of Black Journalists, Inc. (TABJ), establish the organization in recognition of the opportunities, advantages, and responsibilities inherently present when African-Americans choose journalism as a career. Through TABJ we seek to obtain the maximum benefits of our common association, facilitate our professional career growth, acknowledge the exceptional talents of our own and maintain the highest standards of excellence in our profession. As African-Americans working within the journalism profession, we understand we are uniquely qualified to contribute to an understanding of our cultural identity by all peoples who are exposed to our work, to endeavor to improve the sensitivities of the media establishment to the needs and concerns of African-Americans, and to serve as role models and provide resources for African-American youth interested in pursuing journalism careers. Through membership in TABJ, we stand committed to and are prepared to undertake these high ideals.
