The Birmingham Reporter was an African American weekly newspaper founded in Birmingham, Alabama, in 1906 by journalist and publisher Oscar W. Adams Sr. Published through the Jim Crow era until 1934, the paper championed civil rights, documented racial injustice, covered Black community life, and reported on notable institutions such as the Birmingham Black Barons. Through its fearless reporting on lynchings, politics, World War I service, and Black achievement, the Birmingham Reporter became one of Alabama's most influential early Black newspapers.
