Description | The Seattle Enterprise, later known as the Enterprise and Northwest Enterprise, emerged in 1920 under William Henry Wilson's guidance. Wilson's leadership elevated the paper as a vital voice for Seattle's African American community. After his tenure, a succession of editors, including Zelmar Lawrence and George McCoy Francis, carried its legacy forward. Edward Isidore Robinson's stewardship from 1939 expanded its influence, aligning with the IBPOEW and BSCP. Post-Robinson, Prentis Ivanhoe Frazier upheld its significance until cessation in 1952. Noteworthy features like "Have you Hurd?" by Freddie Mae Hurd and advocacy for civil rights underscored its impact, marking it among the most influential African American newspapers in the Pacific Northwest. NDLI hosts contents from/of year 1921 of this newspaper. |
