Clyde McGrady,

I am a national correspondent covering race for The New York Times, based in Washington, D.C. What I Cover I report on the ways race and identity shape American culture, focusing on the real world implications of policies coming from Washington. It also means reporting on what activists, social movements, and everyday voters want to see from their leaders. My Background I grew up in rural Georgia, and graduated from the University of Georgia with a degree in political science before earning my master’s degree in public finance at New York University. I came to The Times in 2022 after The Washington Post, where I also wrote about race and identity. I have covered Congress for Roll Call, a news outlet that tracks legislation and reports on Congress, and worked as a staffer on Capitol Hill. Journalistic Ethics As a Times journalist, I adhere to the standards of integrity outlined in The Times’s Ethical Journalism handbook. I strive to make sure I’m listening to a wide range of viewpoints in my reporting and representing them accurately and fairly in my stories. I want my sources to know that I appreciate their time and take their participation seriously. Contact Me Email: clyde.mcgrady@nytimes.com X: @CAMcGrady Anonymous tips: nytimes.com/tips
