This article is about the British newspaper, which is not to be confused with the Apartheid-era New Nation (South African newspaper) published in Johannesburg, South Africa
New Nation is a weekly newspaper published in the UK for the African-Caribbean community. Launched in 1996, the newspaper is today Britain's Number 1 selling black newspaper. The original design for the newspaper was by Peter Pek, who also designed its masthead, which is still in use today. The paper is published every Monday.
New Nation is published by Ethnic Media Group, a leading publisher of weekly newspapers, magazines, websites and digital newspapers for Britain’s African, Caribbean, Black British and Asian communities in the UK. It pioneered the development of Black and Asian digital newspapers reaching a global audience.
The newspaper features a mix of news, sport, social and political issues. It also has a recruitment and personal section. Its weekly entertainment section, The Pulse, features black music, gospel, general entertainment features as well as exclusive interviews.
In 2003, when several UK newspapers were furnished with details about the death of Margie Schoedinger, a black woman who had filed rape charges against George W. Bush, only the New Nation chose to publish the story[1].
The online version of the paper serves over 325,000 page impressions monthly.
