EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in sepia tones, this remarkable photograph showcases the graduating class of law students at Howard University in Washington, D. C. around the turn of the 20th century. The image exudes a sense of elegance and sophistication as these young African American men proudly pose for their portrait. Dressed impeccably in tailored suits and top hats, they epitomize the fashion trends of that era. With determined expressions on their faces, it is evident that these graduates are ready to make their mark on society as lawyers. Howard University has long been recognized as a prestigious institution for higher education among African Americans. This photograph serves as a testament to its commitment to providing opportunities for black individuals seeking professional careers during a time when racial discrimination was rampant. The significance of this image lies not only in its historical context but also in its representation of resilience and determination against all odds. These men defied societal expectations and pursued legal studies with unwavering dedication. As we gaze upon this snapshot from over a century ago, we are reminded of the progress made since then while acknowledging that there is still work to be done towards achieving equality and justice for all.
