The Indianapolis Recorder Newspaper has been a trusted voice for over 130 years—reporting with purpose, advocating with integrity, and elevating the stories that matter to Black communities across Indiana and beyond.

As a historic, community-centered publication, we believe local news should be accessible to everyone, regardless of income, zip code, or background. That’s why we’ve kept our work available to all, without a paywall.

But accessible journalism needs community support.
