Black Newspapers History Month!... 'Newspaper Of The Week!'..The Southern Watchman!

   

Our 'Newspaper Of The Week'

is:

...The Southern Watchman!


The Southern Watchman, published and edited by 

The Honorable Anderson N. McEwen, in 1899, 

as a weekly, spoke out for equality and the end of

violence and lynching, while publicizing Our 


Beautiful Black Accomplishments and social activities. 


It lasted until 1904.








Black Newspapers History Month, 

celebrated every year in January, was 

founded by Ralph C. Winge, D.D.S.

in 2025 to acknowledge, praise, and respect 

the Publishers, Editors, Reporters, 

Typesetters, Secretaries, Agents, 

Distributors, Newsstands, Paperboys, 

and all of the the Team Members, 

over the many decades, necessary 

to produce and disseminate to Our

Black Beautiful Populations the needed 

paper ( and now digital) instruments 

to inform, inspire, and promote literacy, 

so that Our People can make better 

decisions, remember Our Great Histories, 

to keep Our People up on current events,

to engage our populations to organize, 

provide tips and methods to stay safe 

in potentially-hostile environments, 

and create mechanisms to construct 

Our Enterprises for Our Outstanding Futures.




The Founder of Black Newspapers History Month,

Ralph C. Winge, D.D.S.,

is also a Historical Newspaper enthusiast

and USC Dental School Graduate.
