EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment frozen in time at Hampton Institute, circa 1900. The image showcases a history class taking place against the backdrop of Fort Monroe, Virginia. Renowned photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston skillfully captured this scene, immortalizing the students and their dedicated teacher. In this snapshot from the turn of the century, we see both men and women engaged in their pursuit of knowledge. The diversity within the classroom is striking; African American pupils gather together to learn about their rich heritage and shape their future. It is a testament to Hampton Institute's commitment to providing education opportunities for all. The exterior setting adds an intriguing layer to this historical print. Fort Monroe stands tall behind the students as if symbolizing strength and resilience. This location holds significance as it served as a safe haven for escaped slaves during the Civil War era. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time - witnessing not only an early university class but also glimpsing into a pivotal period in American history. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come while acknowledging that there is still much work ahead towards achieving equality for all individuals.
