EDITORS COMMENTS
This tintype print from 1875 showcases a portrait of an unidentified African American woman, who was believed to be a resident of the historically significant Weeksville neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. The image is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of this vibrant community. The woman's elegant fashion choices reflect the late 19th-century style, with her fashionable hat adding a touch of sophistication to her ensemble. Despite being anonymous, her dignified presence speaks volumes about the resilience and strength of African Americans during that era. Weeksville was one of the few neighborhoods where free African Americans could own property before slavery was abolished. It became a thriving hub for black entrepreneurs, professionals, and activists who sought refuge from racial discrimination prevalent at that time. This rare tintype photograph captures not only an individual but also represents the collective spirit and determination of African Americans in their pursuit for equality and freedom. Preserved by The Granger Collection, this historical artifact serves as a reminder of our shared past and inspires us to continue fighting for justice today.
