"Unveiling the Shadows: A Glimpse into the Lives of the Oppressed" In a world marred by injustice, these historical artifacts serve as poignant reminders of the struggles faced by those oppressed. The chromolitho from 1911 captures the heart-wrenching departure of young souls leaving their homes for the Carlisle Indian School, torn away from their families and cultural roots. "The Middle Five, " a print from 1900, sheds light on an era when oppression was rampant. It portrays individuals caught in a web of societal constraints, yearning for liberation and equality that seemed elusive. The hand-coloured engraving titled "France Freedom, Britain Slavery, " published in 1789, juxtaposes two nations at odds with each other's moral stance. It reflects upon a time when humanity grappled with its own contradictions. A tobacco box lid crafted in Coalbrookdale depicts a kneeling slave inscribed with "Humanity. " This lead artwork serves as both an indictment and plea to recognize our shared humanity and end this dehumanizing institution. "What has the North to do with slavery?" asks an American anti-slavery almanac lithograph from 1839. It challenges complacency and calls for collective action against systemic oppression. Through oil on canvas, we encounter "Portrait of a Slave in Chains, " which immortalizes one individual's suffering while reminding us that countless others endured similar fates under bondage's cruel grip. A coloured engraving depicting a runaway slave evokes empathy towards those who dared to defy their oppressors' chains—a testament to resilience amidst adversity. A tapestry seat cover showcases another enslaved figure bound by chains alongside an anti-slavery slogan—an emblematic representation of resistance against subjugation woven into every fiber of existence. "Dred Scott (1799-1858), " captured through lithography, encapsulates one man's fight for freedom within America's deeply divided society—a symbol of the countless souls yearning for emancipation.
