Established in 1871, the Jubilee Singers were formed to raise funds for their struggling college, which faced imminent closure due to a lack of financial resources. The group's repertoire consisted primarily of spirituals and gospel songs, which resonated deeply with audiences both in the United States and abroad. The singers depicted in this photograph, taken in the 1870s, include Maggie Porter, E.W. Watkins, H.D. Alexander, F.J. Loudin, Thomas Rutling, Jennie Jackson, Mabel Lewis, Ella Sheppard, Maggie Carnes, and America W. Robinson. Their faces radiate a profound sense of dedication, unity, and determination, reflecting the immense importance of their mission.
