EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph by Gordon Parks captures a powerful moment of unity and friendship at Camp Christmas Seals in Haverstraw, New York. Taken during the 1940s, this image showcases the integrated nature of the camp where children from different backgrounds come together to enjoy their holiday. In this heartwarming scene, we see two young girls – one African American and one Caucasian – standing side by side in their bathing costumes. Their hands are raised in a playful gesture as they share a funny secret or joke. The innocence and joy on their faces reflect the spirit of equality that prevailed at Camp Christmas Seals. The Methodist Camp Service played an essential role in supporting these children from diverse backgrounds during challenging times. This photo is a testament to their efforts in fostering integration and creating an inclusive environment for all. Gordon Parks' skillful composition highlights not only the individual beauty of each child but also emphasizes their shared humanity. Through his lens, he reminds us that rumors should not be spread; instead, understanding and friendship should prevail. As we gaze upon this remarkable image today, it serves as a poignant reminder of our collective responsibility to promote equality and acceptance within our communities - values that transcend time and continue to inspire us all.
