The end of 2020 saw several local publications change hands, but The San Francisco Bay View National Black Newspaper isn't just changing hands, it's going to a cooperative ownership model. The newspaper, which has been operating for more than four decades, kept a primary focus on the Bayview-Hunters Point neighborhood, but it has a national and sometimes even worldwide scope, particularly as it features reporting by and for incarcerated people. Outgoing editor Mary Ratcliff and new editor Malik Washington share their vision for the future of the publication.
