West Indian Gazette

The West Indian Gazette (WIG) was a newspaper founded in Brixton, London, England, by Trinidadian activist Claudia Jones (1915–1964) in 1958. The title as displayed on its masthead was subsequently expanded to The West Indian Gazette And Afro-Asian Caribbean News. WIG is widely considered to have been Britain's first major black newspaper. Jones, who originally worked on its development with Amy Ashwood Garvey, was its editor. WIG lasted until 1965, but always struggled financially, closing eight months and four editions after Claudia Jones's death. George Lamming wrote for it.
