EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in the late 19th or early 20th century, captures a group of students at Hampton Institute in Hampton, Virginia, engaged in the practical study of agricultural sciences. The students, both male and female, are intently focused on the cheese press screw before them, a piece of dairy equipment commonly used in the production of cheese. The scene takes place at Hampton Agricultural and Industrial School, which was founded in 1868 to provide education and training for newly freed slaves and other underprivileged communities. The students' dedication to their studies is evident in their posture and expression, reflecting the institute's commitment to practical, hands-on education. The photograph is a testament to the importance of agricultural education during this period in American history and the role it played in shaping the lives of African American students. The image is held in the Library of Congress and is a valuable addition to the historical record of African American education in the United States.
