Role of the Polish Press in the Immigrant Community
The press, along with the Church and political organizations, was one of the forms of leadership in the Polish immigrant community. In the beginning, the press was creating fewer leaders than the Church and other organizations as was mainly concerned with the political situation in Poland and was not paying much attention to organizing immigrants’ life in the USA. There were several newspapers in each settlement town and they often represented contradicting views, which made it difficult to coordinate a community.[2] The Polish press was used as a tool to develop patriotism among former peasants. It played a major role in changing a peasant into an urban citizen. Many of the papers were targeting peasants and, after a while, working-class immigrants settled in urban areas of the USA.[3] The first polish language newspaper, Echo z Polski,appeared in 1863 and closed two years later. There is no information about any other polish language publications in the United States in the following fifteen years. The next Polish periodicals appeared in the early 1870s. From the 1880s Polish press entered a phase of rapid development due to the growing immigrant population in the USA. The first dailies appeared in the late 1880s. The three main centers of the polish community and press were localized in big cities: Chicago, Milwaukee, and New York.[4]
