The tavern, with its distinctive chimneys and groceries sign bearing the name R.L. Hilliard, stands as a testament to the rich history of this region in the United States. Twelve African American children, dressed in simple yet stylish attire, are arranged in a neat row in front of the building. Their innocent faces, filled with curiosity and wonder, capture the essence of childhood and the innocence of a bygone era. The children's presence adds a human touch to the image, making it a poignant reminder of the daily life in this community during the 1930s.
