Historical Newspapers: Los Angeles Sentinel (1934-2005) This link opens in a new window
Full-text articles published from 1934-2005 from one of the oldest and most influential African American newspapers in the U.S.
From its earliest beginnings when it urged African
Americans not to “spend your money where you can’t work,”
the Los Angeles Sentinel has exposed prejudice, promoted
social change, and empowered the black community.
By accessing more than 70 years of cover-to-cover
reporting, today’s readers view the Depression through the
eyes of African Americans in the 1930s. They can follow
the grass-roots struggle against the racially restrictive
housing covenants of the 1940s. Researchers can
follow Roy Wilkins’ column, “The Watchtower,” and see
how he attacked efforts to label civil rights activists as
“communists” during the Cold War. Today, this independent
publication continues to cover community and world issues
from the unique cultural perspective of the Los Angeles
African American community
