EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time at the Jewish Pedagogical College and Agricultural School in Minsk, 1922-1923. In the midst of field work, young boys are seen reaping barley under the watchful eye of their teachers. This image is not just a snapshot of agricultural labor, but also a glimpse into the rich history and heritage of the Jewish community in Belarus.
During this period, as Stalin's regime took hold, efforts were made to establish a Jewish homeland in the Soviet Far East. The creation of the Jewish Autonomous Region with its capital city Birobidzhan was meant to provide a place where Jews could live and thrive. The photos from this album offer a rare look into the early years of Birobidzhan, showcasing daily life, education, and farming practices.
As we study this image closely, we can see not just children working in fields but also symbols of resilience and determination. Despite challenging circumstances, these young students continue to learn and grow within their community. This photo serves as a reminder of both past struggles and enduring strength within the Jewish culture.
