Black History Month Highlight: Roi Ottley

Throughout Black History Month, Reporter's Notebook is celebrating the accomplishments and contributions of African American journalists throughout U.S. history. This week, we tell the story of Roi Ottley, the son of Grenadian immigrants who would write thought provoking pieces on the life of African Americans in the early 20th century inner city, before becoming the first Black journalist reporting on the front lines of World War 2, while navigating censorship of the harsh reality faced by African American soldiers on the European front.
