Nikole Hannah-Jones

A society for training investigative journalists of color is moving from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to Morehouse College in Atlanta.

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has reached a settlement agreement with journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones that resolves legal matters arising from her application for a tenured position at the university.

Hannah-Jones said the left hasn’t gotten “mad enough” in opposing the “culture war that has been contrived by the right wing” that has led to laws banning schools from teaching things such as her 1619 Project.

Nikole Hannah-Jones' bombshell decision to reject UNC's offer of tenure makes it easy to draw some parallels between the journalist's very public fight with the university and another Black scholar who took the school to task for equitable treatment decades ago.

A coalition of groups representing Black students, faculty, and staff met Wednesday to outline their priorities to create a safer, more equitable campus.

Journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones told CBS This Morning it was "embarrassing" to not be initially considered for tenure at her alma mater after the UNC-Chapel Hill journalism school recruited her. The UNC community is reacting to her decision to instead become a professor at Howard University.

Investigative journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones says she will not teach at the journalism school at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill following an extended fight over tenure.

In a 9-4 vote, the University of North Carolina's Board of Trustees voted Wednesday afternoon to grant tenure for Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones.

Black students organized to call for the university's trustees to vote on tenure to the award-winning journalist. They're also speaking up about how it feels to be a student of color at their predominantly white institution.

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Board of Trustees will hold a special meeting this Wednesday afternoon during which the board is expected to consider a vote on tenure for journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones.
