EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back to the early 1900s, capturing a literature class on John Greenleaf Whittier at Hampton Institute in Virginia. The image, taken by Frances Benjamin Johnston, exudes an air of intellectual curiosity and academic dedication. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see a group of African American men dressed in uniforms attentively listening to their instructor's lecture. The classroom is filled with an atmosphere of deep thought and concentration as these young minds delve into the world of poetry and literature. The students are engrossed in their readings, holding books that contain the profound words of Whittier. Their faces reflect both admiration for the poet's work and determination to expand their knowledge. This scene epitomizes the pursuit of education during a pivotal era when access to learning was still limited for many African Americans. Hampton Institute stands as a beacon of hope and progress, providing opportunities for higher education to those who were previously denied such privileges due to racial barriers. Through this powerful image, we witness not only the thirst for knowledge but also resilience against adversity. Frances Benjamin Johnston skillfully captures this momentous occasion with her lens, immortalizing it forever. As we gaze upon this print today, we are reminded of the importance of education as a catalyst for change and empowerment.
