EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving titled "Mohawk School Room, 1786" takes us back to a significant moment in history when education was being introduced to the Mohawk children. Created by James Peachey in the late 18th century, this print offers a glimpse into an early classroom setting where young Mohawk students are engaged in their studies. The image showcases a schoolmaster diligently instructing his pupils, both boys and girls, who sit attentively at wooden desks. The room is adorned with traditional Native American elements, reflecting the cultural heritage of these indigenous peoples of the Americas. The atmosphere exudes curiosity and enthusiasm as these children strive to acquire not only literacy skills but also familiarity with the English language. This engraving serves as a testament to the importance placed on education during this era and highlights efforts made towards cross-cultural understanding between Native Americans and European settlers. It symbolizes an exchange of knowledge that aimed to bridge gaps between different communities. Preserved within the Newberry Library in Chicago, Illinois, this artwork allows us to reflect upon our shared history and appreciate how far we have come in promoting inclusive education for all. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from centuries past, it reminds us of our collective responsibility to ensure access to quality education for every child today - regardless of their background or culture.
