BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE Sarah-Ann Shaw was born in Roxbury, a neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts, to parents actively involved in the local community. Sarah-Ann's father, Norris King Jr., was an active member in the Roxbury Democratic Club. Her mother, Annie Bell Bomar King, was involved in the civil rights activities of Melnea Cass. University of Massachusetts Boston University Archives and Special Collections Finding Aid Collection: SC-0220 SHAW Shaw attended the William P. Boardman Elementary School, Henry Lee Higginson Elementary School, and the Girls’ Latin School, which is now known as Boston Latin Academy. Shaw was active at St. Mark’s Social Center as a member of the Boston Action Group (BAG), and was associated with the NAACP Youth Movement. After graduating from the Girls’ Latin School in 1952, Shaw briefly attended Boston University, leaving in 1955 to get married. Shaw was involved with activists like Otto P. Snowden and Muriel S. Snowden in 1957. During that time period, Bill Strickland, national Student Movement head, asked Shaw to lead the Boston Northern Student Movement. Her activities with the movement included coordinating student-led voter education, high school tutoring, and economic housing education with the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE), the Boston Action Group (BAG), the Southern Christian Leadership conference (SCLC), and the Unitarians. Starting in 1968, Shaw was involved with Ray Richardson’s Say Brother (now known as Basic Black), a public affairs show on WBEZ-TV. Shaw appeared more than twenty times on the program. In 1969, WBZ-TV 4 hired Shaw as Boston’s first African-American reporter. Shaw worked with WBZ from 1969-2000 not only as a reporter but also as host of the public affairs program Mzizi Roots. Shaw’s work “helped define minority affairs programming and news content,” resulting in a long list of awards for her journalistic work, including a Lifetime Achievement Award from the National Association of Black Journalists. Shaw also volunteered for Boston Partners in Education, served as a board member of Boston Neighborhood Network, and served as the president for both the Boston Coalition of Black Women and the League of Women for Community Service.

Hear how this free alternative weekly newspaper’s laudable format of an employee-run collective was, ironically, its undoing as the opportunity to sell arose, as did interpersonal conflict. Their experience with The Real Paper yields surprising views on modern-day journalism, including sustainable and fair business models, the future of free newspapers in a world of internet media, and whether journalists in today’s economy should strike out on their own.
