The Durham Voice is an informational website focused on events, stories, and news in Durham County, NC. It highlights local events, issues, and successes, especially for communities often overlooked by larger media. The platform preserves local culture and history by documenting stories and traditions while empowering residents to share experiences and concerns. It also supports local businesses, fostering community connection and engagement. Now, we have many student writers from UNC-CH contributing to the stories. The Durham Voice will serve as a vital source of information for both residents and those outside the city.
We currently don’t have a subscription function due to the rebranding and site updates. But it is a feature that will be introduced soon.
We have a team of student writers from the Hussman School of Media and Journalism at UNC-CH, all professional creators. Stories will be released in rounds, approximately 20 stories per round, every two months.
We welcome new ideas, stories, suggestions, and tips. If you have something interesting to share, feel free to contact Carl Kenney at cakenney@email.unc.edu
To nominate a community leader, you can either send us their name along with a brief description of their contributions and why they should be featured, or you can take the initiative to interview them and write a credible, professional piece for publication. Once complete, submit your story for review at cakenney@email.unc.edu, and we’ll consider it for our next release!
