Students in the Home Economics Class, Daytona Beach, Florida, 1943
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph by Gordon Parks transports us back to a significant moment in American history. Taken during the 1940s at Bethune-Cookman College in Daytona Beach, Florida, it showcases a group of African American students engaged in their home economics class. The image captures the essence of education and empowerment as these young women learn essential skills for domestic life. The instructor stands proudly beside a blackboard adorned with notes on cookery and food technology. With her hand gesturing towards the board, she imparts knowledge that will shape these students' futures. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness not only an educational setting but also a powerful symbol of resilience and determination. These young women are defying societal norms by pursuing higher education despite facing racial discrimination prevalent during that era. Gordon Parks masterfully captures this historic moment through his lens. As one of America's most influential photographers from the 20th century, he skillfully portrays both the individuality and collective strength of these students. This print serves as a reminder of how far we have come while acknowledging the progress still needed to achieve equality for all. It is a testament to the enduring spirit of African Americans who fought against adversity to pursue education and create opportunities for themselves and future generations.
