EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the English Mission in Tanga, German East Africa (now Tanzania), circa 1912. The image showcases a collection of impressive European-designed buildings nestled amidst the lush, tropical landscape of palm trees. The mission, established during the height of colonialism, served as a hub for evangelism and religious conversion in the region. The missionaries, primarily from England, brought with them the message of Christianity and the Gospel, seeking to spread the faith among the local African population. The mission compound, with its imposing architecture and manicured grounds, stands as a testament to the European presence and influence in the region during the early 1900s. The missionaries played a significant role in the history of Tanga and Tanzania, as they not only spread the message of Christianity but also introduced Western education and medical practices. The mission buildings served as schools, hospitals, and places of worship, providing essential services to the local community. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, capturing the intersection of European colonialism, religious evangelism, and African history. It serves as a reminder of the complex and multifaceted impact of European influence on the African continent during the 1910s and beyond.
