EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Lewis Hine in April 1917, transports us to a classroom at the Training School for Deaf Mutes in Sulphur, Oklahoma. The image showcases an art class filled with young boys and girls eagerly engaged in their creative endeavors. Despite their hearing impairments, these children are determined to express themselves through art. The sepia-toned print captures the early days of education for deaf students in America's southwest region. It serves as a testament to the progress made in providing equal opportunities for all learners. Each child is seen seated at their desk, fully immersed in their artistic pursuits under the watchful eye of their teacher. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness responsibility being nurtured within these young minds. As they learn valuable lessons about self-expression and creativity, they also develop a sense of independence and pride that transcends any handicap they may face. Lewis Hine's photograph not only documents a moment from history but also celebrates the resilience and determination of these schoolchildren. Their dedication to learning shines through each brushstroke on canvas or pencil mark on paper. As we gaze upon this image, let us be reminded of the power of education to overcome barriers and empower individuals regardless of their circumstances.
