The Chicago Defender has been a leading voice of the black community well beyond the Windy City, with more than
two-thirds of its readership outside Chicago. The newspaper was a proponent of The Great Migration, the move of
over 1.5 million African-Americans from the segregated South to the industrial North from 1915 to 1925. It reported on
the Red Summer race riots of 1919, and editorialized for anti-lynching legislation and the integration of blacks into the
U.S. military. This newspaper also supported the aviation career of Bessie Coleman, the first African-American female
pilot, and promoted the writing of Langston Hughes and Poet Laureate Gwendolyn Brooks.
