The event welcomed Black, African, Caribbean and other diasporic communities for garden tours, movement activities, food and fellowship.

Appeals court considers North Carolinas ballot-selfie ban
Carolinian staff writer Jordan Meadows reported September 19 that a federal appeals panel heard a Wake County residents challenge to North Carolina laws prohibiting photographs of completed ballots. Susan Hogarth, a Raleigh native and former state Senate candidate, argues that posting a photograph of her marked ballot is constitutionally protected political expression. State election officials maintain that the restrictions protect ballot secrecy and help prevent coercion and vote-buying. A federal district judge previously upheld the laws. The appeals courts eventual ruling could affect what North Carolina voters may photograph and share during the 2026 election.
North Carolina eliminates a teacher-training entrance exam
A WUNC education report published by The Carolinian on September 18 examined the states decision to eliminate the Praxis Core requirement for students entering upper-level education courses. Supporters of the change described the standardized exam as a barrier that forced some otherwise qualified students to leave teacher-preparation programs. Approximately 35 former students returned to UNC Greensboros School of Education following the policy change. Students must still satisfy college GPA requirements and pass relevant subject-matter examinations before becoming fully licensed. Education leaders will monitor whether removing the entrance exam improves teacher recruitment and increases enrollment in preparation programs.
Minority-owned businesses seek new state contracting opportunities
The Carolinian published an NC Newsline report September 18 detailing the response to North Carolinas elimination of the Office for Historically Underutilized Businesses. Black and minority business owners gathered in Greensboro to urge state leaders to preserve access to government contracts. Their proposals included moving previously certified HUB companies into the Small Business Enterprise program and establishing an advisory council on Black affairs. More than 6,000 companies were reportedly participating in the HUB program when the office closed. State officials announced that a new accelerator program would open October 15 to help affected businesses navigate the transition.
Top Stories From The Triangle Tribune
Durham and Raleigh businesses respond to the HUB office closure
Triangle Tribune reporter Kylie Marsh provided additional local context about the end of North Carolinas HUB office in a September 16 report. Greater Durham Black Chamber of Commerce President and CEO CJ Broderick joined business owners and other advocates in calling for new avenues through which historically underutilized companies can compete. The story also highlighted Durham-based CATE Services, which said it was removed from a minority-business partnership associated with the Raleigh Convention Center and Red Hat Amphitheater project after completing more than a year of work. The coalition asked Gov. Josh Stein to establish an advisory council on Black affairs, transfer HUB-certified companies into the states Small Business Enterprise Program and create a 25% small-business participation goal.
North Carolina reaches settlement over allegedly predatory auto loans
The Triangle Tribune reported September 19 that North Carolina Attorney General Jeff Jackson and a bipartisan coalition reached a $694 million settlement with Credit Acceptance Corporation. The lawsuit alleged that the auto-finance company targeted consumers with poor or limited credit using high-interest loans it knew many borrowers could not afford. The company was also accused of concealing the loans true cost and employing aggressive collection practices. The settlement provides approximately $7.5 million in debt relief and nearly $2 million in restitution for North Carolina consumers. Eligible borrowers will be contacted by the company or a claims administrator.
Attorney general warns domestic-violence survivors about scams
In a September 20 staff report, The Triangle Tribune shared a warning from Attorney General Jeff Jackson about scams targeting North Carolina domestic-violence victims. According to the report, scammers impersonate law-enforcement officers or court officials and may contact victims soon after an arrest or court hearing. The scheme exploits a moment when survivors may already feel vulnerable or uncertain about the legal process. The warning underscores the importance of independently verifying unexpected requests for money or sensitive information with the relevant court or law-enforcement agency.
NCCU and Shaw build early-season football momentum
Triangle Tribune sports editor Bonitta Best reported September 16 that North Carolina Central University and Shaw University entered the week on two-game winning streaks. NCCU running back Plez Lawrence earned conference recognition following a career performance against North Carolina A&T. The Eagles prepared to face Gardner-Webb before traveling to East Carolina. Shaws Bears had produced consecutive comeback victories over Barton and Ferrum. Quarterback Alexander Marsh and kicker Benjamin Turner played pivotal roles in the overtime win against Ferrum, while the defense created turnovers when the Bears needed them most. In a September 17 column, Best argued that Shaws improvement and favorable schedule could give the Raleigh HBCU an opportunity to compete for its first CIAA championship since 2010.
