The Baltimore Afro-American Newspaper recently celebrated its 113th anniversary! It targets the African-American audience and circulates in two slightly different editions, one for the Baltimore area and the other one for the Washington DC area. The DC edition is called Washington Afro-American Newspaper. Each week the newspaper provides business, arts & entertainment, sports, real estate, church and local news, politics as well as interviews and editorials. The Baltimore Afro-American Newspaper is the oldest continuously published black newspaper in the United States. It was founded in 1892 by a former slave John Murphy and has been ever since a family owned business. The magazine is famous for its editors, reporters and campaigns, some of which have changed the course of history: the prohibition of school segregation in the United States, the "Clean Block" campaign, still in existence today as an annual event aimed at improving the appearance of and reducing crime in inner-city neighborhoods, the in-depth reports from World War II or the weekly sports column that helped many black athletes make their name in the professional sports. The Baltimore Afro-American Newspaper together with the Washington Afro-American Newspaper is published weekly with 52 issues per year and has a circulation of more than 100,000.
