The journal gave black scholars the chance to publish articles examining African-American history and culture while also documenting the current black experience in the United States. While the journal mainly published the work of black authors and encouraged their academic success, it was also an outlet for white scholars who had different views than their counterparts. Woodson's efforts to cover African-American history at a time when it was unacknowledged has led him to receive the nickname "Father of African American History."<sup id="cite_ref-:1_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:1-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Carter_G._Woodson">Carter G.

Before it was commonplace for women to be openly welcomed in the world of academia, the <i>Journal of African American History</i> (still known then as <i>The Journal of Negro History</i>) provided women of color with an outlet to publish their work without the ridicule of others. The first black female historians paved their way using the <i>Journal of Negro History.</i> Female authors contributed nine percent of the articles published in the <i>Journal of Negro History</i>, compared to an average of only three percent in other notable journals of the time, such as <i>Mississippi Valley Historical Review</i> or the <i>Journal of Southern History</i>. The <i>Journal of Negro History</i> was therefore quite revolutionary in its time by allowing more female authors to contribute to the journal. One of the most notable examples is <a href="/wiki/Marion_Thompson_Wright" title="Marion Thompson Wright">Marion Thompson Wright</a>, who received a doctoral degree in history.
