Help us transcribe The Louisville Leader

The Louisville Leader, an African American community newspaper, began publication in Louisville, Kentucky on November 3, 1917. It covered local religious, educational, social, fraternal, and sporting activities, as well as national and international news.

We need your help to make these articles easier to search and discover. Automated programs have difficulty transcribing faded, torn, or misaligned text, even when they are readable to the human eye. With your help, we can create full-text transcriptions of these articles, making them easily searchable.

Please help us transcribe the text. This is a great opportunity to contribute to an important resource on Louisville African-American history.

Get involved.
