Description | The Detroit Tribune, established in 1933, quickly became a prominent voice for Detroit's African American community, positioning itself as the leading Negro weekly in Michigan. In 1933, it merged with the Detroit Independent and was briefly known as the Tribune Independent of Michigan before reverting to its original name in 1935. Facing bankruptcy in 1952, the paper was purchased by Andrew Ferdinand Fruehauf, who envisioned it as a platform for both Christian Science advocacy and racial empowerment. Fruehauf's leadership emphasized the paper's dual mission of spiritual enlightenment and social justice until his passing in 1965. NDLI hosts contents from/of year 1933 of this newspaper. |
