EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a poignant moment in the history of Louisiana's Alma Plantation. Taken in 1934 by renowned photographer Alan Lomax, it showcases a group of African American girls and women against the backdrop of False River. The image transports us to an early morning on the plantation, where these young girls and women are seen dressed in traditional attire. Their faces reflect both resilience and determination as they stand outside a rustic cabin, symbolizing their connection to this land. The straw hats adorning their heads provide protection from the scorching southern sun, while their dresses speak volumes about their heritage and culture. This snapshot offers a glimpse into the lives of those who worked tirelessly on plantations like Alma during that era. Lomax's lens beautifully captures not only the physical surroundings but also the spirit and strength embodied by these individuals. It serves as a reminder of both the hardships faced by African Americans in that time period and their unwavering resolve to persevere. As we contemplate this photograph today, let us honor these resilient women for their contributions to our shared history. May it serve as a testament to how far we have come while reminding us of how much further we still need to go towards equality for all.
