EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in sepia tones, this vintage print takes us back to the early 1900s at Atlanta University, Georgia. A group of African American women students are elegantly seated on the steps of a historic building, exuding grace and determination. The photograph by Thomas Askew showcases not only their beauty but also their strength as they navigate higher education during a time when opportunities for black women were limited. Dressed in fashionable attire of the turn of the century, these young scholars proudly represent progress and resilience within their community. Their presence at Atlanta University symbolizes the importance of education as a means to overcome societal barriers and achieve personal growth. The composition captures both individuality and unity among these remarkable women. Each face tells a unique story while collectively they form an inspiring portrait that challenges stereotypes and defies expectations. Their confident gazes reflect ambition and hope for a brighter future. As we admire this historical image, let us remember the significance it holds in celebrating African American achievements amidst adversity. It serves as a reminder that knowledge is power, capable of breaking down barriers and paving the way for generations to come.
