Шаблон:Infobox newspaper The Houston Forward Times (FT) is a weekly newspaper headquartered in Houston, Texas. It is one of the largest black-owned newspapers in the city.[1] It is published by the Forward Times Publishing Company, which also publishes other publications such as the Daily Cougar. As of 2014, the FT is one of the few remaining self-printing black newspapers.[2]
Julius Carter started the newspaper, which opened in 1960:
Carter died in 1971 and his wife, Lenora Carter, took over the operations of the newspaper.[3] The Forward Times Publishing Company began publishing it in 1977. She continued to publish and edit the newspaper, and was continuing to do so in the 1990s.[2]
The circulation was 17,970 in the 1990s.[2]
Lenora Carter died on April 10, 2010. Karen Carter Richards, daughter of Julius and Lenora Carter, continues as the CEO and Publisher of the Forward Times.[4] In September 2010 the Julius and Lenora Carter Scholarship and Youth Foundation was established, which publicly benefits low- and/or medium-income graduating seniors and college students of private and public schools within the Greater Houston Metropolitan area, and also interns students through the Forward Times Publishing Company.[4]
On October 2, 2015, the Forward Times celebrated 55 years of being in print, "reporting the truth, and giving back to the community" [5] with a cover feature and a benefit concert, with the proceeds going to the Julius and Lenora Carter Scholarship and Youth Foundation.[6]
