The publication was started by Wallace Thurman, Zora Neale Hurston, Aaron Douglas, John P.

It was released along with ''Stop Thief!'' (1901), "indicating the direction Williamson would take over the next few years, as he refined this new film grammar to tell stories of unprecedented narrative and emotional sophistication."
