EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in history - the Methodist Conference of 1891. The image showcases a group of distinguished African-American delegates who attended the Second Ecumenical Methodist Conference held in Washington, D. C. during October of that year. Taken by renowned photographer C. M. Bell, this sepia-toned print exudes an air of elegance and importance. Each delegate is portrayed with utmost dignity, their expressions reflecting both determination and pride. Amongst them are notable figures such as Bishop Arnett, Reverend Albert Johnson, Phillip Wayman, and James Hay. The composition highlights the diversity within this gathering; men from various backgrounds united under a common purpose - to discuss matters relevant to their faith and community. Their presence at such an event was groundbreaking for its time, challenging societal norms and paving the way for future generations. As we gaze upon this remarkable portrait over a century later, it serves as a reminder of the resilience and strength exhibited by these trailblazers who fought against adversity to make their voices heard. This print not only immortalizes their contribution but also symbolizes hope for progress towards equality.
