  • LeRoy Chapman Jr. named top editor at AJC in ATlanta.

    AJC Makes History, Names First Black Editor-In-Chief

    4 Min Read

    Atlanta’s largest newspaper recently made history by naming its first black editor-in-chief!

    Leroy Chapman Jr. has begun his tenure at The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, succeeding longtime Editor Kevin Riley, who announced his retirement Thursday.

    AJC Names First Black Editor-In-Chief

    As the organization’s top news executive and first Black editor in chief in the newspaper’s 155-year history, Chapman will oversee the newsgathering, programming, features, and opinion teams as well as the editorial teams responsible for video, audio, newsletters and events.  Chapman will report to AJC President and Publisher Andrew Morse.

    Riley, one of the longest-tenured editors of a major daily publication, will retire later this year. He will assume the role of editor at large during a transition period. 

    Leroy Chapman is an outstanding journalist, an inspirational leader, and an innovative thinker,” Morse said. “We are lucky to have him leading our newsroom as we transform the AJC into a modern media company at the center of life in Atlanta. We also want to recognize Kevin’s long, decorated history as editor of the AJC. He has made invaluable contributions to this institution and this city. We’ll miss his sound judgment and good humor and wish him the best in a well-deserved retirement.”

    Who Is LeRoy Chapman Jr.?

    Chapman is currently managing editor at the AJC, overseeing daily news gathering, breaking news, coverage of key news topics including state, local and federal government, politics, education, public safety, transportation, Georgia’s economy and the environment. Sports was added to Chapman’s responsibilities earlier this year. He joined the AJC in 2011 from The State in Columbia, S.C.

    Since joining the AJC, Chapman has shepherded some of the publication’s most high-profile stories, including the efforts to undermine Georgia’s 2020 election results, the court cases of teachers and administrators charged in the Atlanta Public Schools cheating scandal, and the investigation into Atlanta’s affordable housing crisis during a time of economic uncertainty. Chapman is a U.S. Navy veteran and has been a journalist for 28 years. He lives in Gwinnett County with his wife Dawn and is a father to three adult children. The Chapmans’ oldest child is a relative the couple adopted when he was 13. 

    “The significance of this moment isn’t lost on me. This kind of opportunity is why African Americans come to Atlanta,” Chapman said. “Kevin has been excellent at being visible in our communities and hearing from people. I am looking forward to getting out into the community and understanding more about how the AJC can continue to serve audiences and improve our city.”

    Riley started his career in 1983 at the Dayton Daily News, which is also owned by Cox Enterprises, and was editor in Dayton for four years before coming to Atlanta in 2011. In his 12-year tenure, he emphasized public service, investigative journalism, and political coverage, as Georgia claimed a leading role in national politics. He oversaw the largest reporting staff covering Georgia’s governor and legislature.

    “I have never felt more inspired about the future of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution,” Riley said. “It’s been an honor to lead these incredible journalists and to serve the citizens of this state and city for the past 12 years. I will miss being a part of this storied organization, but I know its finest days are ahead.”

  • Founders from the Geekz Ventures GROWTH Inaugural Pre-Accelerator Program

    10 Startups Announced In Geekz Ventures Inaugural Pre-Accelerator Program

    6 Min Read

    Tech pre-accelerator Geekz Ventures recently announced its class of 10 startups for its inaugural cohort program, including some with ties to Atlanta.

    The city’s tech industry continues to be one of the most progressive in the nation on many fronts.


    The Growth pre-accelerator program supports Black and Latinx-led early-stage companies from any industry, with a focus on MediaTech, Entertainment, and Mobile Technology. Applicants were assessed on their product, video pitch, potential impact, and capacity to build a scalable business.

    Kicking off in March 2023, the highly competitive 10-week program offers training, mentorship, and resources to help founders build successful businesses. Geekz Ventures provides access to world-class mentors and coaches, peer-to-peer networking, and an equity-free grant with the possibility for follow-up funding.

    Topics such as branding, scaling operations, knowing your numbers, product market fit, and emotional intelligence in leadership will be covered.

    In addition, founders participate in workshops and one-to-one office hours. They will also gain media exposure, including opportunities to be featured on the digital news platform, UrbanGeekz.

    Geekz Ventures is founded by award-winning BBC-trained journalist-turned-serial entrepreneur Kunbi Tinuoye. Former WeWork Enablement executive Brandon Wilkins will serve as the program manager.

    “We were inundated with applications,” said Tinuoye.” After a rigorous application process, we have selected founding teams that we truly believe can build sustainable and scalable brands.”

    Geekz Ventures program manager Brandon Wilkins said, “What’s exciting me the most is being able to witness up-and-coming black-founded tech startups. Black people still represent the tech space in low numbers, and I’m excited to see the innovation and growth.”

    Speaking about one startup that has caught his eye, Wilkins cites The Barter Shop. Aimed at creating an inclusive micro-economy for small businesses and solopreneurs, the startup was founded in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the home of Black Wall Street. For Wilkins, “with the history of what happened there, this takes determination and great bravery.”

    Mentors and coaches include Mandela SH Dixon, the former CEO of All Raise, a non-profit on a mission to accelerate the success of female and non-binary investors, founders, and operators in tech.

    Gary Stewart, MD of Techstars NYC powered by J.P. Morgan joins Hodge Dixon alongside other high-profile leaders in the media or tech startup ecosystem.

    Other mentors include Kathryn O’Day, partner at Atlanta Ventures; Marguerite Pressley Davis, founder of Finance Savvy CEO, Aniyia L. Williams, Principal at Omidyar Network, and Terry (Kojo) Oppong, Creator Manager at LinkedIn, among others.

    “I am impressed with the cohort of early-stage founders that Geekz Ventures has assembled and proud to serve as a mentor,” said Danielle Nicholson, Geekz Ventures coach, and founder and CEO of BuilderBloc, a legal and business advisory firm that works with early-stage founders in emerging markets. “I look forward to providing these founders with the legal guidance required to build a solid foundation for future success.”

    Geekz Ventures also provides an outlet for its entrepreneurs to work on their emotional health, professional relationships, and stress management.

    “Our mission is to empower business owners and entrepreneurs of color to create the lives they always imagined for themselves,” said Geekz Watch coach Chantel Cohen and founder of CWC Coaching & Therapy, which provides therapy and coaching services to entrepreneurs and professionals alike. “We are excited to work with Geekz Ventures. Through this partnership, our goal is to promote prosperity for underrepresented founders on a global scale,”

    Atlanta One Of The Top Cities For Scam Calls

    3 Min Read

    For reasons unknown, robocallers love the Peach State and its largest city. Atlanta is among the top cities in which its residents receive robocalls and scam calls.

    If you want to get rid of those pesky “Scam Likely” calls, keep reading. Do you recognize scam calls when you get them. Let’s investigate:

    What Is A Scam Call?

    A scam call is one that has clearly illegal or fraudulent behavior, such as a call from an enterprise imposter, or one that has a spoofed caller ID.

    The phone companies’ initiative, Stir/Shaken, continues to reduce the number of robocall campaigns based on spoofed IDs, which drives down the number of obvious scam calls by making them harder to detect, since they appear to be telemarketing campaigns unless there is other evidence of fraud.

    How To Get Rid Of Scam Likely Calls In Atlanta

    To get rid of scam likely calls in Atlanta, you need to use your cell phone provider’s services. For T-Mobile, you can download the Scam Shield app, to screen scam likely calls.

    For an AT&T device, you can use AT&T Call Protect offers similar protection for any device using this carrier.

    For wireless customers, Verizon’s Call Filter can help you avoid unwanted calls. Call Filter blocks potentially fraudulent calls by automatically sending them to voicemail, but you can also block unwanted or nuisance calls with the free Call Filter app or through MyVerizon.

    The top cities, area codes, and states with the most robocalls and robocalls/person remained unchanged from January.

    Area Codes with the Most Robocalls/Person:

    State with the Most Robocalls:

    Texas (511.2 million, -4%)

    Final Word

    • Nathalie Emmanuel

    What Is Megalopolis About?

    Megalopolis is a movie about an architect who dreams of building a utopia in New York City after a disaster.

    “I know that Megalopolis, the more personal I make it, and the more like a dream in me that I do it, the harder it will be to finance,” Coppola told GQ. “And the longer it will earn money because people will be spending the next 50 years trying to think: What’s really in Megalopolis? What is he saying? My God, what does that mean when that happens?”

    Where Is Megalopolis Being Filmed?

    Filming for Megalopolis is happening in Fayetteville, Georgia at Trilith Studios. Filming will reportedly run until February 2023.
