Jet magazine is a popular African-American publication founded in Chicago, Illinois in 1951 by John H. Johnson of Johnson Publishing Company. Jet is notable for its small digest-sized format. Influential in the early days of the American Civil Rights movement, with its coverage of the murder of Emmett Till and the Montgomery Bus Boycott, today Jet is part of Johnson Publishing's Ebony publishing empire. Jet was originally printed in either all or mostly black and white until the December 27, 2000, issue.
