Camille A. Brown, the first Black woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for her work as a publisher, premieres her latest work 'I AM,' a celebration of Black joy and cultural liberation.

‘ Publisher and my father, Wilbert “Bill” Tatum, before me. We’ve been reporting the news of the day from a Black perspective since 1909 –, the first time in the 125 years of this award it has been given to a Black woman publisher – We are proud to provide no paywall journalism for the Black community we serve, the largest Black and Brown community in the country.‘ Publisher and my father, Wilbert “Bill” Tatum, before me.
CB: I’m very clear about where I am and the spaces that I’m holding and yes, there’s pressure. There’s pressure I put on myself, of course. I know that it’s never just about me. Never. I am representing something in these rooms whether it’s as a woman, as a Black woman, as a Black person. I’m thrilled to be able to do what I love doing and I’m really happy that I stuck to it and didn’t allow other people’s opinions to deter me.
