The New York Amsterdam News is another great publication that you’ll want to learn more about, especially if you live in the Harlem area. This newspaper is one of the state’s largest Black-owned and operated institutions, and informs the residents of New York about the cultural events and job opportunities that are available all around the city. The first issue of the Amsterdam News was distributed by James H. Anderson in 1904, and the paper was first sold for only two cents out of Anderson’s home.
Through the years, the investment responsibilities of the paper have rested with several trust African-American businesspeople, and was most recently acquired by the Tatum family. At present, Wilbert Tatum is the chairman of the board for the paper, and is the publisher emeritus. You’ll find everything from comics to career advice, to articles about African-American history in the paper, which is why the Amsterdam News is still so popular after all these years.
