The Circuit (newspaper)
The Circuit was an African American newspaper published in Catlett, Virginia, from 1937 until 1954. It was described as "Virginia's only colored paper north of Richmond." The Circuit was important to the African American communities in northern Virginia during the Jim Crow era.
As of November 2013[update], only ten issues are known to still exist in archives, five at the Library of Virginia and six at the archives of the Afro-American Historical Association of Fauquier County (AAHAFC) in The Plains, Virginia. Information published in those available copies was important in documenting the historic nature of some African-American communities such as the Ashville Historic District.
