This is a list of African American newspapers that have been published in Louisiana. It includes both current and historical newspapers.
The first African American newspaper in Louisiana was L'Union, a French-language newspaper launched in 1862. The first daily African American newspaper in Louisiana, and in the entire country, came two years later with La Tribune de la Nouvelle-Orléans.
Notably, although the Louisiana Creole people were not considered Black until after the Civil War, the history of African American newspapers in Louisiana is sometimes considered to begin with the New Orleans Daily Creole, a Creole pro-slavery newspaper launched in 1856. However, scholars of the African American press generally exclude the Daily Creole.
Although L'Union was the first African American newspaper in Louisiana, it was not the state's first African American periodical: starting in 1843 a successful African American literary magazine was published in New Orleans, titled L'Album Litteraire, Journal des Jeunes Gens.
Many African American newspapers are published in Louisiana today; they are highlighted in green in the list below. The oldest such newspaper still in publication is The Shreveport Sun, established in 1920.
