Beasley, University of Maryland This anthology of journalism history brings together essays on the early Black press, pioneer Jewish journalism, Spanish-language newspapers, Native American newspapers, woman suffrage, peace advocacy, and Chinese American and Mormon publications.

The essays address the important questions of freedom of expression in religious matters as well as the domains of race and gender.
