RED HOOK - CHILDREN, 1942. A Glimpse into the Vibrant Community of Red Hook Housing Development in Brooklyn, New York
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph captures a moment frozen in time - children gathered together in the community center of the Red Hook housing development. Taken by Arthur Rothstein in 1942, this image provides a rare glimpse into the lives of African American children during that era. The diversity within this close-knit community is evident as boys and girls from different backgrounds come together with joyous smiles on their faces. They are dressed in their Sunday best; some wearing overalls while others donning dresses or shirts and ties. The innocence radiating from these happy faces is palpable. Red Hook was not just a place to live but also a place where strong bonds were formed among neighbors who shared similar experiences and struggles. This photograph serves as a testament to the resilience and strength found within communities like Red Hook. As we reflect upon this historical moment captured by Arthur Rothstein, it reminds us of the importance of preserving our collective memory through visual documentation. The Granger Collection has beautifully preserved this piece of history, allowing us to appreciate and learn from it today.
