Juneteenth reminds us that freedom delayed is freedom denied. In 1863, the truth of emancipation was withheld from people who had every right to know they were free. Today, attacks on the free press threaten that same fundamental principle: the public’s right to know.

A free press is essential to freedom. It allows us to document our stories, defend the truth, challenge injustice and hold power accountable.

This Juneteenth, NABJ honors the legacy of those who fought for liberation and reaffirms our commitment to protecting the journalists who continue to carry truth forward.

On Friday, May 27, The City Club of Cleveland will host A Free and Fair Press in Cleveland: A Conversation with Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb and WKYC’s Russ Mitchell from 11:30 am-1 pm.

Essential—and foundational—to our democracy is the promise of a free and fair press. Civic life thrives when the relationship between media and government remains strong, transparent, and accountable. This is especially true at the local level, where access to trusted journalism directly shapes meaningful community engagement.

Join the City Club, in partnership with The Press Club of Cleveland, for a timely conversation with Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb and WKYC’s Russ Mitchell on the role of journalism in civic life—and what we can learn from the City’s efforts to build what has been called “The Cleveland Era."

GCLEABJ, a Community Partner for this event, is offering Chapter members a 20% discount to attend. Use the promo code GCABJMAY for online single ticket or table purchases. Tickets must be purchased no later than Monday, May 25.
