Newspaper
Title
Het vrije woord: weekblad
Description
*Het vrije woord* was a liberal and Flemish-leaning newspaper. In the first publication, the editors announced their intentions for the paper: "Tot vlaamsch orgaan der werkelijk liberale opinie te Antwerpen is dit weekblad gesticht" ("For the Flemish organ of truly liberal opinion in Antwerp this weekly was founded"). Louis Gerrits was the paper’s co-founder and a city councilor in Antwerp for the Meeting Party. This Antwerp political formation was a coalition of radical liberals, Catholics and flamingants who took an anti-militarist and anti-royalist stance. With Gerrits writing the lead articles for *Het vrije woord*, the paper served as a mouthpiece and opinion publication for the liberal Meeting party.
