  • Baton Rouge Advocate (1925-Today) a Unique, Seamless Research Experience
    Baton Rouge Advocate (1925-Today) A unique, seamless research experience Quick Facts The Advocate is the “independent voice of South Louisiana” Explore decades of Bayou history, fully integrated with the most comprehensive aggregated news resource in the world Valuable for students and faculty in nearly every academic discipline Overview The Advocate and its journalistic ancestors have been a vital force in Louisiana’s capital city and surrounding communities since the 19th century. One of the few major independent newspapers in the United States today, The Advocate’s archives provide more than 90 years of unique insight into the people, places and events that shaped South Louisiana. Providing this historical archive as part of the most comprehensive aggregated news resource in the world creates a seamless continuum of coverage from 1925 to today, and offers valuable teaching and research opportunities for students and faculty in nearly every academic discipline. A window into 20th-century Louisiana In the early 20th century, the Louisville, New Orleans and Texas Railway arrived, and local officials sought greater economic activity. New owners revitalized The Advocate, publishing this principle in a page-one editorial: “It is our intention to print a newspaper whose editorials are not for sale, and whose news items cannot be suppressed, a newspaper commensurate with hopes and plans of Baton Rouge.” As such, The Advocate provides an uncompromised glimpse into Louisiana history and daily life throughout the 20th century. From the Great Depression through Katrina As the century progressed, The Advocate also reported on significant national issues and events, including the Great Depression, World War II, the Vietnam War and the Civil Rights movement.
