EDITORS COMMENTS
Miss Evelyn Ellis graces the cover of Volume 1, Number 3 of The November Crusader, a publication from the Lafayette Players in New York City during the late 1910s and early 1920s. The image, titled "Onward for Democracy; Upward with Race," showcases Miss Ellis with a radiant smile, dressed in elegant attire, and holding a copy of the magazine. The Lafayette Players were an African American theatrical company that performed at the Lafayette Theatre, located in Harlem. The company was known for producing plays that addressed social issues and promoted racial uplift. The cover page of this particular issue, dated November 1918, highlights Miss Ellis's involvement with the Lafayette Players and her role in the entertainment industry during a pivotal time in American history. The tagline "Upward with Race" reflects the optimistic spirit of the African American community during the Harlem Renaissance, a period of cultural, social, and artistic flourishing. The photograph, held in the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture at the New York Public Library, is a testament to the rich heritage of African American history and the contributions of individuals like Miss Evelyn Ellis to the world of theatre and performance. The image captures a moment in time when the arts were used as a means of expression, empowerment, and social commentary. The Lafayette Players and their productions, including Miss Ellis's performances, were essential to the cultural landscape of New York City and the United States during the 1910s and 1920s. This photograph serves as a reminder of the important role that the arts, and specifically the African American theatrical community, played in shaping American history and culture.
