List Of African-American Newspapers In Rhode Island
This is a list of African-American newspapers that have been published in the state of Rhode Island. It includes both current and historical newspapers. Relatively few African-American newspapers have been published in Rhode Island. The first known such newspaper, and the only one published in the 19th century, was John Henry Ballou's ''Eastern Review'' (1879–1880). Rhode Island was thus the only state to show a net drop in African-American newspapers between 1880 and 1890, namely from 1 to 0, as Irvine Garland Penn recorded in ''The Afro-American Press and Its Editors''. In addition to its African-American newspapers, Rhode Island is the site of another important advancement in the history of the Black press: when John Carter Minkins became editor-in-chief of the Providence ''News-Democrat'' in 1906, he was the first African American to head a daily newspaper that catered to the white community. Upon leaving the ''News-Democrat'' in 1911, Minkins purchased the weekly ' ...

African-American History Of Rhode Island
African Americans (also referred to as Black Americans and Afro-Americans) are an ethnic group consisting of Americans with partial or total ancestry from sub-Saharan Africa. The term "African American" generally denotes descendants of enslaved Africans who are from the United States. While some Black immigrants or their children may also come to identify as African-American, the majority of first generation immigrants do not, preferring to identify with their nation of origin. African Americans constitute the second largest racial group in the U.S. after White Americans, as well as the third largest ethnic group after Hispanic and Latino Americans.

The Providence American
''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things already mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with pronouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter. This is different from many other languages, which have different forms of the definite article for different genders or numbers. Pronunciation In most dialects, "the" is pronounced as (with the voiced dental fricative followed by a schwa) when followed by a consonant sound, and as (homophone of pronoun ''thee'') when followed by a v ...
