EDITORS COMMENTS
UNIVERSITY STUDENTS, c1900: A Glimpse into the Pioneering Spirit of African American Scholars". This photograph from 1900 showcases a significant moment in history - four African American students seated on the steps of Atlanta University in Georgia. The image, captured by renowned photographer Thomas E. Askew, offers a rare glimpse into the lives and aspirations of young black scholars at the turn of the century. Dressed impeccably in fashionable attire of that era, these unidentified individuals exude confidence and determination. Their stylish blouses, skirts, and hats reflect their pride in personal presentation despite societal challenges they undoubtedly faced as students during this time. The sepia-toned portrait not only captures their physical presence but also symbolizes resilience amidst adversity. These university students embody hope for future generations by defying racial barriers through education. Atlanta University played a pivotal role in empowering African Americans to pursue higher education when opportunities were scarce. This print serves as a testament to their unwavering commitment to knowledge and self-improvement. As we admire this historical artifact today, let us remember these trailblazers who paved the way for countless others seeking equal educational opportunities. Their legacy continues to inspire us all to strive for excellence regardless of our backgrounds or circumstances.
