EDITORS COMMENTS
This gelatin silver print showcases a group of African American baseball players from Morris Brown College in Atlanta, Georgia, circa 1899. The image captures the spirit and determination of these talented athletes as they proudly pose together for the camera. Dressed in their baseball uniforms, each player exudes confidence and strength. Their faces reflect both excitement and focus, ready to take on any challenge that comes their way. The team's coach stands tall beside them, providing guidance and support. The details within this photograph are remarkable - from the carefully crafted stitching on their jerseys to the worn-out gloves held tightly in their hands. Each player holds a bat or a ball, symbolizing their dedication to the game they love. This historic image holds even greater significance as it was exhibited by collector William Edward Burghardt Du Bois at the Paris Exposition Universelle of 1900. It serves as a testament to not only the talent and skill of these African American athletes but also their resilience in overcoming societal barriers during that time period. Through this photograph, we are reminded of the rich history and contributions made by African Americans in sports. It is a powerful reminder that passion knows no boundaries and that teamwork can transcend any obstacle thrown its way.
