Robert Sengstacke Abbott: A Man, a Paper, and a Parade is the biography of Robert Abbott, who founded The Chicago Defender , one of the first influential newspapers for African Americans, in 1905. Through the medium of this publication, Robert Abbott was able to uplift and inspire generations of African Americans and to encourage them to fight for equality during a time when many were deprived of basic freedoms and were under the thumb of Jim Crow Laws. Inspired by the descriptions in The Chicago Defender and other newspapers of life in the northern United States, many African Americans journeyed north and found ways to escape the unjust laws that had oppressed them in the southern states. This is the first title in the newly launched Change Maker Series from Bellwood Press. Books in this series are aimed at middle grade readers and tell the stories of dynamic individuals who made a difference by dedicating their lives to bringing about social change.
