EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "RICHMOND: VOTERS, 1870" takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image showcases the first municipal election held in Richmond, Virginia after the conclusion of the Civil War. In this colored engraving from 1870, we witness freedmen eagerly registering to exercise their right to vote. The scene is filled with hope and determination as African American men stand tall, ready to participate in the democratic system that had long excluded them. This powerful display of liberated voices speaks volumes about the resilience and strength of those who fought for equality during Reconstruction. The setting itself reflects a pivotal time in American history - late 19th century Richmond - where progress was being made towards dismantling systemic oppression. It serves as a reminder that even amidst adversity, change can be achieved through perseverance and collective action. This image also highlights an important aspect of feminism; it demonstrates how voting rights are crucial not only for women but also for marginalized communities seeking justice and representation within society. As we gaze upon this historic engraving, let us remember the significance behind each face captured here - individuals who courageously paved the way for future generations by exercising their hard-fought right to vote.
