Charlottesville-Albemarle Tribune

The Charlottesville-Albemarle Tribune was a weekly newspaper in Charlottesville, Virginia published by and for African American residents of the city. Founded in 1954 by Randolph Lewis White,[1] it ran through 1992, a year after White's death. At that time, it became The Tribune,[2] and this paper ran until 2011. Sherman White co-published the newspaper with Randolph White for many years. Both men were heavily involved in desegregation efforts in Charlottesville, and the paper contributed important reporting and editorials to the debates in Charlottesville over School integration and Massive resistance.[3]
