EDITORS COMMENTS
CHICAGO: NURSE, 1941. A powerful symbol of resilience and progress, this print captures a nurse at Provident Hospital in Chicago, Illinois.

The photograph was taken by Edwin Rosskam in 1941, showcasing his keen eye for capturing the essence of everyday life. The nurse depicted here is a testament to the unwavering dedication and strength exhibited by African-American healthcare professionals during a time when their contributions were often overlooked or undervalued. Clad in her surgical mask and uniform, she exudes professionalism and compassion as she tends to her patients' needs. This image serves as a reminder of the significant strides made within the medical field towards equality and inclusivity. It stands as a tribute to all those who fought against adversity to provide quality care for their communities.
