Kuryer Polski is a continuation of the glorious, over 70-year-old tradition of the first Polish newspaper in America with this name, published in Milwaukee until 1962, reactivated as an internet portal in 2020.
Kuryer Polski is a bilingual - Polish-English - internet portal. The main goal of the portal is to promote Polish identity in the Polish-American community in the United States and to represent Polish interests in the United States by reactivating the great history of the American Polonia, providing Americans with objective news about Poland, Poles, Polish diaspora and Poles abroad, and developing business contacts between Poland, the United States, the European Union and the Three Seas countries. Like the original Kuryer, the portal is based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
