Title: Freedom's Journal
Description: "On March 16, 1827, Freedom's Journal, the first African American newspaper, began publication in New York. National in scope and distributed in several countries, the paper connected African Americans beyond the boundaries of city or region and engaged international issues from their perspectives. Freedom's Journal ceased publication after only two years, but it shaped the activism of both African American and White leaders for generations to come."--Publisher's description on back cover.
