The Black Scholar (TBS) is a journal founded in California, in 1969, by Robert Chrisman, Nathan Hare, and Allan Ross. It is the third oldest Black studies journal in the US, after the NAACP’s The Crisis (founded in 1910) and the Journal of African American History (formerly The Journal of Negro History, founded in 1916). The journal is currently housed at Boston University's Program in African American Studies.^[1] Originally published 10 times a year, and without peer review, the journal introduced peer review and became a quarterly in 2015.
