A month-long celebration of the African-Americans who paved the way for future generations, Black History Month is supported by a variety of educational programs that raise awareness for cultural issues and cultivate ethnic pride.

Throughout the year - but during February in particular - such programs can also spark renewed interest and increased consumer demand for newsstand publications targeting such issues. Among the top ethnic publications on the market is one of Kable's newest titles -- NV, a magazine that celebrates the minority professionals, entrepreneurs, and pioneers who are making history as we speak.

NV Magazine (47271) started approximately one year ago as one man's "New Vision." Today, the publication ranks among the newsstand's hottest new titles having filled a much-needed void in the business magazine category under the guidance of 26-year-old entrepreneurial sensation and publisher, Kyle Donovan.

NV is the first, and only, national business magazine for today's minority entrepreneurs and young professionals. To date, the only remotely comparative title is Black Enterprise. However, Black Enterprise has an average readership age of 43 - a far cry from the dynamic Generation X audience NV targets.

The magazine has already been featured prominently in the New York Daily News, Advertising Age, Crain's New York Business, and other well-respected media outlets, and is supported by a strong internet presence at http://www.nvmagazine.com for maximum exposure.

NV Magazine is bi-monthly, carries a cover price of $3.50 in the United States and $4.50 in Canada, and offers a 10-percent retail display allowance.
