Historical Newspapers: New York Amsterdam News (1922-1993) from:
From an initial $10 investment, the New York Amsterdam News grew to become one of the nation’s leading black newspapers and one of New York’s most influential black-owned institutions. For nearly a century, it has helped influence and promote the causes and aspirations of African-Americans.
Historical Newspapers: New York Tribune (1841-1922) from:
Horace Greeley, founder of the New York Tribune, was arguably one of the most colorful and powerful publishers of his time. His editorials influenced the abolishment of slavery, plagued presidents and politicians, and encouraged the settlement of the West. His newspaper featured revolutionary thinkers such as Margaret Fuller, Karl Marx, and Friedrich Engels. Reform-minded Greeley, whose newspaper had a circulation of more than a quarter of a million by the 1860s, helped form the Republican Party and ran for president in 1872.

Historical Newspapers: Norfolk Journal and Guide (1921-2003) from:
Under the leadership of P.B. Young, the “Dean of the Negro Press,” The Norfolk Journal and Guide became one of the best researched and written newspapers of its era, with a circulation of more than 80,000 by the 1940s. It argued against restrictive covenants, rallied against lynching, encouraged blacks to vote, supported improvements to city streets and water systems, and more. In contrast to other black newspapers, such as the Chicago Defender (with which The Norfolk Journal and Guide is cross-searchable), this newspaper campaigned against The Great Migration of Southern laborers to the North. It was one of only a few black newspapers to provide on-the-scene coverage of the 1930s Scottsboro trial, and helped raise legal funds for the nine young black defendants.

Historical Newspapers: San Francisco Chronicle (1865-1922) from:
Not earthquakes, not fires, not even the murder of one of its owners by a minister could stop the independent and often irreverent presses of the San Francisco Chronicle. Founded by two teenage brothers in 1865 when the West was still wild, this newspaper lets researchers travel back in time to experience the completion of the transcontinental railroad, the Klondike gold rush, the San Francisco earthquake and fire of 1906, America’s entry into World War I, and many other events that shaped both the City by the Bay and the United States.
Historical Newspapers: St. Louis Post-Dispatch (1874-1922) from:
At the turn of the 20th century, St. Louis was the fourth largest city in the U.S., home to a large population of German and Irish immigrants, and a major crossroads for the migration of Americans to the West and North. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch captures this movement and the growth of a nation, and provides a Midwestern perspective on major events of the day.

The Atlanta Constitution gives today's researchers a vivid, first-hand account of one of the most turbulent periods in American history: post-Civil War reconstruction. This is an ideal primary resource for studying the feelings and reactions of Southerners on the passage of the 14th Amendment, the purging of "Rebels"; from the legislature, the giving--then denying--of the right to vote to former slaves, and the passing of economic policies that changed the South and the United States forever.

Historical Newspapers: Atlanta Daily World (1931-2003) from:
W.A. Scott II founded the Atlanta Daily World at a time when most black Americans lived in the South. He felt that “the race problem” could only be solved in the South, which required an informed community. Rather than reading news about African-Americans “through the optics of a host of prejudiced white papers,” he launched his own newspaper to educate, inspire, uplift, and promote the expression of the Southern black community.

Saunders Redding, artist Romare Bearden, and sports editor Sam Lacy, whose column influenced the desegregation of professional sports.
Historical Newspapers: The Baltimore Sun (1837-1985) from:
Founded by Arunah Shepherdson Abell as a paper devoted to the news that most directly affected the lives of its readers, The Baltimore Sun's history is among the most distinguished in American journalism. It represented this bustling port city by reporting on pivotal issues and events of the 19th and early 20th centuries: immigration, the slave trade, commerce, the Civil War, Washington D.C. politics (The Baltimore Sun began publishing 40 years before the Washington Post), Americana, and literature. H.L. Mencken, the "Sage of Baltimore," and one of the most influential American writers of the early 20th century, wrote for this renowned newspaper.

Historical Newspapers: Chicago Defender (1910-1975) from:
The Chicago Defender has been a leading voice of the black community well beyond the Windy City, with more than two-thirds of its readership outside Chicago. The newspaper was a proponent of The Great Migration, the move of over 1.5 million African-Americans from the segregated South to the industrial North from 1915 to 1925. It reported on the Red Summer race riots of 1919, and editorialized for anti-lynching legislation and the integration of blacks into the U.S. military. This newspaper also supported the aviation career of Bessie Coleman, the first African-American female pilot, and promoted the writing of Langston Hughes and Poet Laureate Gwendolyn Brooks.
Historical Newspapers: The Christian Science Monitor (1908-1995) from:
After being provoked by Joseph Pulitzer's New York World newspaper for her unconventional religious ideas, 87-year-old Mary Baker Eddy founded The Christian Science Monitor. In contrast to the yellow journalism of the day, this newspaper's directive was to; injure no man, but to bless all mankind. Over the decades, her newspaper has earned many awards for journalistic excellence; including, ironically, several & Pulitzer Prizes.

Historical Newspapers: Cleveland Call and Post (1934-1991) from:
Editor William O. Walker used his newspaper to rally the masses in support of equal rights, much as civil rights leaders would decades later. In the 1930s, the Cleveland Call & Post called upon the local community to support the Scottsboro defendants with letters, clothing, stamps, and cigarettes. It also encouraged donations to the defense fund for the innocent youths, reminding its readers that the freedom of nine Southern black boys wasn’t all that was at stake—so were the rights of all black Americans to a fair jury trial.
Historical Newspapers: Detroit Free Press (1837-1922) from:
The Detroit Free Press published its first edition before Michigan entered statehood and when wild animals outnumbered the people living in the city. Its editor assigned a writer to walk the waterfront and record the shipping news each day, creating the first news “beat.” The Free Press also was the first U.S. newspaper to print a regular Sunday edition and the first to publish court testimony. It sent reporters to Civil War battlefields to describe the action, set up a Washington bureau to report on politics, and was the first American newspaper published in Europe when it began a London edition in 1881.

America’s longest continuously published newspaper, The Hartford Courant is literally older than the nation. It provides historians and other researchers a front-row seat from which to view the birth of an independent nation. In The Courant’s pages, today’s researchers will find firsthand accounts of colonists’ reaction to the Stamp Act, reports of the Boston Tea Party, and a copy of the Declaration of Independence. The newspaper’s existence was so crucial to the rebel’s cause during the American Revolution that when its paper mill burned, the Connecticut legislature authorized a lottery to build a new mill.

Historical Newspapers: Atlanta Daily World (1931-2003) from:
W.A. Scott II founded the Atlanta Daily World at a time when most black Americans lived in the South. He felt that “the race problem” could only be solved in the South, which required an informed community. Rather than reading news about African-Americans “through the optics of a host of prejudiced white papers,” he launched his own newspaper to educate, inspire, uplift, and promote the expression of the Southern black community.
Historical Newspapers: Boston Globe (1872 - 1979) from:
The devastating 1872 Boston fire. The suspenseful 1893 Lizzie Borden ax murder trial. The catastrophic 1919 police strike. Mid-20th-century decline and renewal. These dramatic stories as well as accounts of everyday life in historical New England await your online researchers in the digitized pages of The Boston Globe(1872-1979), part of ProQuest Historical Newspapers™.
Historical Newspapers: Chicago Defender (1910-1975) from:
The Chicago Defender has been a leading voice of the black community well beyond the Windy City, with more than two-thirds of its readership outside Chicago. The newspaper was a proponent of The Great Migration, the move of over 1.5 million African-Americans from the segregated South to the industrial North from 1915 to 1925. It reported on the Red Summer race riots of 1919, and editorialized for anti-lynching legislation and the integration of blacks into the U.S. military. This newspaper also supported the aviation career of Bessie Coleman, the first African-American female pilot, and promoted the writing of Langston Hughes and Poet Laureate Gwendolyn Brooks.
Historical Newspapers: Chicago Tribune (1849-1986) from:
Chicago Tribune (1849-1986) provides researchers with access to the historical archive of the newspaper.
Historical Newspapers: Cleveland Call and Post (1934-1991) from:
Editor William O. Walker used his newspaper to rally the masses in support of equal rights, much as civil rights leaders would decades later. In the 1930s, the Cleveland Call & Post called upon the local community to support the Scottsboro defendants with letters, clothing, stamps, and cigarettes. It also encouraged donations to the defense fund for the innocent youths, reminding its readers that the freedom of nine Southern black boys wasn’t all that was at stake—so were the rights of all black Americans to a fair jury trial.
Historical Newspapers: Detroit Free Press (1837-1922) from:
The Detroit Free Press published its first edition before Michigan entered statehood and when wild animals outnumbered the people living in the city. Its editor assigned a writer to walk the waterfront and record the shipping news each day, creating the first news “beat.” The Free Press also was the first U.S. newspaper to print a regular Sunday edition and the first to publish court testimony. It sent reporters to Civil War battlefields to describe the action, set up a Washington bureau to report on politics, and was the first American newspaper published in Europe when it began a London edition in 1881.
America’s longest continuously published newspaper, The Hartford Courant is literally older than the nation. It provides historians and other researchers a front-row seat from which to view the birth of an independent nation. In The Courant’s pages, today’s researchers will find firsthand accounts of colonists’ reaction to the Stamp Act, reports of the Boston Tea Party, and a copy of the Declaration of Independence. The newspaper’s existence was so crucial to the rebel’s cause during the American Revolution that when its paper mill burned, the Connecticut legislature authorized a lottery to build a new mill.
Historical Newspapers: Los Angeles Sentinel (1934-2005) from:
From its earliest beginnings when it urged African-Americans to not “spend your money where you can’t work,” the Los Angeles Sentinel has exposed prejudice, promoted social change, and empowered the black community.
Historical Newspapers: Los Angeles Times (1881-1986) from:
Los Angeles Times (1881-1986) allows researchers to access the archives of the newspaper.
Historical Newspapers: New York Amsterdam News (1922-1993) from:
From an initial $10 investment, the New York Amsterdam News grew to become one of the nation’s leading black newspapers and one of New York’s most influential black-owned institutions. For nearly a century, it has helped influence and promote the causes and aspirations of African-Americans.
Historical Newspapers: New York Tribune (1841-1922) from:
Horace Greeley, founder of the New York Tribune, was arguably one of the most colorful and powerful publishers of his time. His editorials influenced the abolishment of slavery, plagued presidents and politicians, and encouraged the settlement of the West. His newspaper featured revolutionary thinkers such as Margaret Fuller, Karl Marx, and Friedrich Engels. Reform-minded Greeley, whose newspaper had a circulation of more than a quarter of a million by the 1860s, helped form the Republican Party and ran for president in 1872.
Historical Newspapers: Norfolk Journal and Guide (1921-2003) from:
Under the leadership of P.B. Young, the “Dean of the Negro Press,” The Norfolk Journal and Guide became one of the best researched and written newspapers of its era, with a circulation of more than 80,000 by the 1940s. It argued against restrictive covenants, rallied against lynching, encouraged blacks to vote, supported improvements to city streets and water systems, and more. In contrast to other black newspapers, such as the Chicago Defender (with which The Norfolk Journal and Guide is cross-searchable), this newspaper campaigned against The Great Migration of Southern laborers to the North. It was one of only a few black newspapers to provide on-the-scene coverage of the 1930s Scottsboro trial, and helped raise legal funds for the nine young black defendants.
Historical Newspapers: Philadelphia Tribune (1912-2001) from:
The oldest continuously published daily black newspaper in the U.S., The Philadelphia Tribune was founded by Christopher James Perry. His paper conveyed ideas and opinions about local and national issues affecting blacks in the post-emancipation period, and today continues to serve the country’s fourth-largest African-American community.
Historical Newspapers: San Francisco Chronicle (1865-1922) from:
Not earthquakes, not fires, not even the murder of one of its owners by a minister could stop the independent and often irreverent presses of the San Francisco Chronicle. Founded by two teenage brothers in 1865 when the West was still wild, this newspaper lets researchers travel back in time to experience the completion of the transcontinental railroad, the Klondike gold rush, the San Francisco earthquake and fire of 1906, America’s entry into World War I, and many other events that shaped both the City by the Bay and the United States.
Historical Newspapers: St. Louis Post-Dispatch (1874-1922) from:
At the turn of the 20th century, St. Louis was the fourth largest city in the U.S., home to a large population of German and Irish immigrants, and a major crossroads for the migration of Americans to the West and North. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch captures this movement and the growth of a nation, and provides a Midwestern perspective on major events of the day.
Historical Newspapers: The Atlanta Constitution (1868-1942) from:
The Atlanta Constitution gives today's researchers a vivid, first-hand account of one of the most turbulent periods in American history: post-Civil War reconstruction. This is an ideal primary resource for studying the feelings and reactions of Southerners on the passage of the 14th Amendment, the purging of "Rebels"; from the legislature, the giving--then denying--of the right to vote to former slaves, and the passing of economic policies that changed the South and the United States forever.
Historical Newspapers: The Baltimore African-American (1893-1988) from:
Founded by former slave John Henry Murphy, Sr. when he merged three church publications, The Baltimore Afro-American became one of the most widely circulated African-American newspapers on the Atlantic Coast. In addition to featuring the first black female reporter (Murphy's daughter) and female sportswriters, the paper's contributors have included writer Langston Hughes, intellectual J. Saunders Redding, artist Romare Bearden, and sports editor Sam Lacy, whose column influenced the desegregation of professional sports.
Historical Newspapers: The Baltimore Sun (1837-1985) from:
Founded by Arunah Shepherdson Abell as a paper devoted to the news that most directly affected the lives of its readers, The Baltimore Sun's history is among the most distinguished in American journalism. It represented this bustling port city by reporting on pivotal issues and events of the 19th and early 20th centuries: immigration, the slave trade, commerce, the Civil War, Washington D.C. politics (The Baltimore Sun began publishing 40 years before the Washington Post), Americana, and literature. H.L. Mencken, the "Sage of Baltimore," and one of the most influential American writers of the early 20th century, wrote for this renowned newspaper.
Historical Newspapers: The Christian Science Monitor (1908-1995) from:
After being provoked by Joseph Pulitzer's New York World newspaper for her unconventional religious ideas, 87-year-old Mary Baker Eddy founded The Christian Science Monitor. In contrast to the yellow journalism of the day, this newspaper's directive was to; injure no man, but to bless all mankind. Over the decades, her newspaper has earned many awards for journalistic excellence; including, ironically, several & Pulitzer Prizes.
