Description
"The South's oldest and leading colored semi-weekly newspaper."
"The MEMPHIS WORLD is an independent newspaper -- non-secretarian and non-partisan, printing news unbiasedly and supporting those things it believes to be of interest to its readers and opposing those things against the interest of its readers."
The Civil Rights Digital Library received support from a National Leadership Grant for Libraries awarded to the University of Georgia by the Institute of Museum and Library Services for the aggregation and enhancement of partner metadata.
