Taji Mag’s Foundation
Taji Mag is all about ‘Cultural Drip’ — celebrating Black excellence by uplifting Black brands, stories, and artistry. Through our quarterly digital and print publication and virtual and live events, we blend tradition and modern royalty to showcase the beauty of our people. We’re here to amplify OUR narratives while offering practical advice for financial growth, plant-based ideas and wellness tips for a healthier lifestyle, and thought-provoking pieces that challenge societal norms. Plus, we serve up beauty and fashion inspiration that honors the legacy of Black creativity.
Taji Mag debuted on December 7, 2014, founded by NayMarie with a mission to celebrate unapologetic Blackness. It was created to fill the gap in mainstream media, where positive stories about the Black community were rarely seen. After the tragic killing of Mike Brown, the Black community united, seeking ways to ‘shop Black’ — but many didn’t know where to start. Just nine days later, NayMarie formed the Black Owned Business Collective, which later evolved into the non-profit Our Black Web with partner Will Focus. Along the way, she uncovered a wealth of Black-owned businesses and inspiring stories that deserved a platform. Fueled by her passion for photography, Taji Mag took shape on November 1st and launched a month later. Though born in Brooklyn, Taji has since built a global community across the African diaspora.
Today, Taji Mag shines a light on trailblazers, Black-owned businesses, and creatives across all fields. Our team spotlights those making a real impact while offering Black-owned alternatives to everyday products. Our mission is to uplift the Black community with powerful images of Black beauty, love, and family, celebrate the positive strides within our community, and share health and wealth knowledge tailored to our needs. We are inspired every day by our readers and the community we serve!
