EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the lush greenery of Sierra Leone, West Africa, in the early 1910s, villagers gather to prepare their arable land for another planting season. The air is filled with the rhythmic beat of drums, as tribesmen and tribeswomen work in harmony, each with a hoe in hand. The ethnic people of Sierra Leone have a deep connection to the land, and agriculture has always been a central part of their culture. The sound of drums signifies the start of another farming cycle, as the community comes together to clear the land of weeds, turn the soil, and plant their crops. The women, dressed in colorful wraps and head ties, work alongside the men, hoeing the soil with determination and grace. The hoes, made from locally sourced materials, glint in the sunlight as they dig into the earth. The men, wearing loincloths and carrying the drums, lead the way, their bodies moving in time with the music. The scene is one of unity and community, as the villagers work together to ensure a bountiful harvest. The plants, already starting to sprout in the background, promise a fruitful season ahead. The cycle of planting, growing, and harvesting continues, as it has for generations, in this beautiful corner of West Africa.
