The New Majority (TNM) is a monthly publication focusing on Houston's minority communities. Houston is currently the 4th largest city in America. According to American Fact Finder, Houston's population makeup is 37 percent Latino, 25 percent African (Black), eight percent Asian American including persons from India, Pakistan and Middle Eastern Americans. This numerical reality makes these three historical minority groups The New Majority.

The New Majority serves as a one stop shop for advertisers. Singular minority publications attract readership from within singular groups. Latino publications are read mostly by Latinos. The same is so with other singular minority publications. Because TNM covers all groups and thus will be read by all groups, advertisers will be able to reach a larger audience.

An added attraction at thenewmajority.net is a link for advertisers which will allow readers the opportunity to view websites of advertisers.

THE NEW MAJORITY'S PURPOSE

TNM focuses on hard news and political information of concern for NM persons. The New Majority seeks to have open and honest dialogue. No issue will be subjugated to the outer realm of political and social discussion for fear of offending someone. TNM will expand on those things which all New Majority persons have in common and bring to light those things which bring us at odds with one another.
