WQED’s Emmy-winning and groundbreaking program, Black Horizons, launched in 1968, provided a vital platform for Black voices and artists in Pittsburgh for over four decades. It was one of the first minority affairs programs in the country and became the longest-running one on public television. Funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities and the National Historical Publications and Records Commission, this project aims to digitize and preserve approximately 2,000 media assets from Black Horizons and related programs, including crucial local stories and interviews with prominent figures. The digitized collection will be made accessible through the American Archive of Public Broadcasting (AAPB) and WQED’s own channels, ensuring the preservation and sharing of this important historical record for future generations.
