The Half-Century Magazine was founded in 1916 by Anthony Overton, to commemorate a half-century since the end of slavery in the United States, or the 1915 Lincoln Jubilee. Along with Overton, Katherine E. Williams was also listed as owner. Williams, Cyril A. Crichlow, and Dr. M. A. Majors all served as associate editors.

The magazine was published until 1925, when it was converted into the weekly newspaper The Chicago Bee, which lasted until 1947.

Along with fiction and poetry, the magazine published a variety of non-fiction essays about Black life in the United States, and associated social/cultural movements. The magazine published writers associated with the Harlem Renaissance, including Anita Scott Coleman; as well as a litany of well-known fiction writers including Paul Lawrence Dunbar and James Weldon Johnson; as well as articles by Howard A. Phelps, Elihu Root, and a poem by Rudyard Kipling.
