BLACK CANDIDATES, c1835 - A Glimpse into Early African American Political Participation
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant piece of history from the antebellum era. The election broadside, dating back to around 1835, showcases an extraordinary list of free black candidates vying for positions in the State Council of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In a time when racial equality was far from realized, this document sheds light on the early efforts made by African Americans to engage in politics and advocate for their rights. The handbill stands as a testament to the resilience and determination of freedmen in North America during that period. It symbolizes their fight against oppression and discrimination while striving for representation within the political sphere. This rare artifact not only reveals names but also serves as evidence that black individuals actively participated in shaping their communities despite facing immense challenges. As we gaze upon this historic image, we are reminded of the struggles endured by these courageous men who dared to challenge societal norms and demand equal opportunities. Their inclusion on this broadside is a powerful reminder that progress has been hard-fought throughout history. Granger Art on Demand's preservation of this remarkable photograph allows us to reflect upon our past and appreciate how far we have come since those times. It serves as an inspiration for future generations to continue advocating for justice and equality regardless of race or background.
