Angelo Henderson, a journalist who won a Pulitzer Prize while working for The Wall Street Journal in 1999, has died.
Max White of WXYZ in Detroit reports, “He was also a two-term Parliamentarian and two-term chapter President for the National Association of Black Journalists.
“He was also a founding member in the Detroit 300, who’s focus is to help communities organize and eradicate crime by policing targeted areas and pursuing individuals committing crimes. Henderson, along with Raphael B. Johnson and Malik Shabazz created the group out of the Detroit community’s frustration with perpetual neighborhood crimes.
“In 1999, Henderson, working as deputy Detroit bureau chief of The Wall Street Journal, was honored with a Pulitzer Prize for distinguished feature writing. He wrote a narrative detailing the lives affected by an attempted drugstore robbery. He was the 22nd African American to win the Pulitzer Prize.
