Afro-Creole Roudanez establish the first black-owned newspaper to provide a voice for promoting the rights of freedmen.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Roundanez Creole was known to be the black creole who emerged from the north area of New Orleans.
  • The white men enjoyed the privilege and made the black to pay tax and keep them as slavery by making them weak without giving equal respect right.
  • He with his colleagues started the first black-owned newspaper called L'UNION and also started the unification movement.
  • In this newspaper the Roundanez wrote about the freedom to black slaves and to provide the political rights for voting etc.., and stop the harassments and threats.
  • This journal was later renamed as new Orleans tribune.
  • Later this journal was forced to close due to the editorial infighting at the year of 1870. Due to this he also withdrew the unification movement.
