L'Afro-American, anciennement The Baltimore Afro-American, est un journal bi-hebdomadaire édité à Baltimore (Maryland) depuis le 13 août 1892[1]. Ce titre qui couvre la conurbation Baltimore-Washington, est l'un des plus importants titres de la presse noire aux États-Unis. Fondé par John Henry Murphy Sr., un ancien esclave[1], l'Afro-American est proche de la NAACP pendant la période du Mouvement des droits civiques. Dès les années 1930, le titre était en pointe sur la question comme l'illustre sa « croisade pour la justice criminelle »[2].
Parmi les grandes plumes de l'histoire de ce titre de presse, citons Langston Hughes, Sam Lacy, William Worthy et Saunders Redding[1].
Basé à Baltimore, ce titre à périodicité bi-hebdomadaire disposa de treize éditions régionales hebdomadaires couvrant les principales villes américaines[1].
