EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of progress and determination at Hampton Institute in Virginia during the turn of the 20th century. Taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, a renowned photographer, this print showcases the post-graduate class of 1900. In this historic image, a diverse group of African American men and women stand proudly outside an early university building. Their faces reflect both hope for a brighter future and pride in their achievements. The students' attire exudes elegance and sophistication, emphasizing their commitment to education despite societal challenges. Hampton Institute played a pivotal role in providing quality education to African Americans during a time when opportunities were scarce. This portrait immortalizes those who defied odds to pursue higher learning, symbolizing resilience against racial discrimination prevalent in the South. The composition expertly captures each individual's unique personality while highlighting unity within the group. It serves as a testament to how education can empower marginalized communities and pave the way for progress. Frances Benjamin Johnston's skillful photography brings forth an emotional connection between viewers and subjects from over a century ago. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are reminded of both our shared history and our ongoing journey towards equality.
