EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Selbourne Avenue, Bulawayo, Southern Rhodesia (Now Zimbabwe): A Snapshot of the 1920s Colonial Era with the Matabele Rebellion Memorial" This evocative photograph captures Selbourne Avenue in Bulawayo, Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), during the 1920s colonial era. The image showcases a tranquil scene of the wide, tree-lined avenue, with its impressive European-style buildings standing proudly on the corners. The architecture, a testament to the British colonial influence, displays an amalgamation of various architectural styles, reflecting the eclectic mix of influences that characterized the era. At the heart of the avenue, a striking memorial plinth dedicated to the Matabele Rebellion catches the eye. The rebellion, also known as the First Chimurenga, took place between 1896 and 1897, marking a significant uprising against the British colonial rule by the Ndebele people, led by their chief, Lobengula. This memorial, a symbol of the past, stands as a poignant reminder of the complex history of this region. The memorial, topped with a gun on a wheeled carriage, is an intriguing contrast to the serene setting of the avenue. The image invites us to reflect on the rich history of Bulawayo and the complexities of the colonial era, as well as the resilience and strength of the people who lived through it. This photograph, taken circa 1920, offers a glimpse into the past, providing a unique perspective on the history of Bulawayo and Zimbabwe during the 1920s. The image is a poignant reminder of the enduring legacy of colonialism and the indomitable spirit of the African people.
