Black Newspapers History Month!... 'Newspaper Of The Week!'...Milwaukee Community Journal!

   

Our 'Newspaper Of The Week'

is:

...The Milwaukee Community Journal!




Answering the urgent need to get Our Beautiful 

Black Stories and Accomplishments out to Our Communities, 

The Honorable Patricia O'Flynn Thomas established


The Milwaukee Community Journal in 1976. Letting 

the chips fall where they may, she engineered, 

her periodical to become the largest Beautiful Black 

newspaper in the whole state! Yes, Your Honor!

And with great acumen and journalistic savvy, the Editor,

The Honorable Thomas E. Mitchell guides the 


piercing stories and perspectives for which Our Readers crave.


The popular and Award-Winning columnist, 

The Honorable Mikel Kwaku Osei Holt, who is now the


Associate Publisher, has 

pumped out relevant stories 

for over 4 decades like its nobody's 

business, and has produced the "Signifyin'" 

column that many people probably rush to 

read first when they open the paper.


This "Sparkling Jewel" in Our Community,



which serves as a broadcasting beacon, 

and a 'heads up' to Our Folk,


is a regional and state institution that we will 

need far into our days and years ahead!



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.

Black Newspapers History Month!... 'Newspaper Of The Week!'...The Milwaukee Defender!

   

Our 'Newspaper Of The Week'

is:

...The Milwaukee Defender!




The Honorable Dr. Mary Ellen Shadd-Strong started 


publishing The Milwaukee Defender in 1956. It 

was loosely associated with the Chicago Defender. 

Known for its militant editorials and article 

perspectives, its reputation with the white 

population remained tense.


It published until 1958.

Black Newspapers History Month!... 'Newspaper Of The Week!'...The Sunday School Herald!

   

Our 'Newspaper Of The Week'

is:

...The Sunday School Herald!


A Baptist minister, in 1892,

The Honorable Reverend L. L. Campbell, founded 

The Sunday School Herald to give moral and 

social instruction to his congregation and the 

surrounding community. 

The attendance at his church swelled.

However, the newspaper is said to have lasted only a year.
