德州少數族裔媒體聯盟正式成立

近十年来，由于大批移民和外州移居德州人口激增，全德州少數族高裔人口已經接近半數 ，不但改變了人口結構，更让我們的多種文化和媒體大放異彩。

多年來，美南新聞印報廠及美南電視攝影棚，不斷為近百家少數族裔媒體服務，包括西班牙、越南 、韓國、 阿拉伯文、 俄羅斯、 日本等各族裔社區的報紙都是我們服務的客戶，加上近年來电視新媒體之崛起，我們的電視攝影棚，也為大家共同享用制作各種不同之語言節目。

今天我們大家終于再度團結在一起，成立德州少數族裔媒體聯盟，主要在於擴大對社區之服務，將以聯盟之共同力量為我們大家發聲，並且向各界顕示少數族裔在美國政治上之力量。

我們今天也有幸邀請到美國國會議员格林、德州參議員惠特邁到場共同見證聯盟之成立。

疫情過後，國內政治變化更加複雜我們一定要用這股話語權來保障自己的權益。

社會變遷是一個不可阻擋的勢力，我們有幸在這個偉大的时代中，參與共同書寫歷史的另一篇章。

Founding Of Texas Minority Media Alliance

Today more than twenty Texas and Houston Minority Media leaders got together at an organizing meeting to form the Texas Minority Media Alliance. Together we will make a formidable force to be reckoned with. We must unite to leverage the minority population with a voice.

We have united to form an alliance to extend our individual reach and support our collective communities.

We are so glad that our Congressman Al Green, Texas Senator John Whitmire and State Representative Gene Wu came to the meeting to give us their support.

Today Texas is the state that has so many newcomers looking forward to opportunity. At least 11,000 new residents move to Texas every day and many of them are members of minority groups, especially those from California.

In the last forty years, Southern News Group has offered many media services to the community, including print newspaper and TV production and we have also held many community events that we have co-sponsored together with many groups.

Most of us came from different corners of the world. We settled down in this great land and made it our home. We all love America.

The Texas Minority Media Alliance can become one of the most important historical organizations in our history. We will continue to write new chapters of history for our community.
