"The South End" newspaper

Detroit--Race relations | Dodge Revolutionary Union Movement | Wayne State University

In 1968, John Watson was selected as editor of Wayne State University’s Daily Collegian, which he changed to the, “South End,” in recognition of Wayne State’s location south of General Motors. He turned the newspaper into a resource for radical causes, tackling race and class issues on a daily basis. This included reporting on the wildcat strikes of DRUM and other similar revolutionary actions. Source: Wayne State University South End Newspapers.
