EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston in 1899 or 1900, offers a glimpse into the classroom setting of Hampton Institute in Hampton, Virginia. The institute, then known as Hampton Agricultural and Industrial School, was a pioneering educational institution for African Americans, founded in 1868. The image captures a group of students, both male and female, engrossed in their studies. The classroom is adorned with American flags and banners, symbolizing the patriotic spirit of the institution. The students are seated at desks, some reading from their textbooks, while others listen attentively to their teacher. The subject of their lesson appears to be Bible history, as evidenced by the open Bible on the teacher's desk. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a prolific photographer of the 19th and early 20th centuries, skillfully captured this moment in time, providing a window into the past. The photograph is now part of the vast collection at the Library of Congress, a testament to the importance of preserving our nation's history. The image is a poignant reminder of the dedication and hard work that went into providing education to African Americans during a time when opportunities were limited. The students' focused expressions and the sense of community in the classroom convey a deep commitment to learning and the pursuit of knowledge.
