EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a rare piece of history - a souvenir programme from the Southern Tennis Association Annual Tournament in 1933. The tournament, held at Tuskegee Institute from 2nd to 5th August, was an important event for African Americans during a time when racial segregation deeply divided American society. The image reminds us of the struggles faced by African Americans in their pursuit of equality and recognition in sports. Despite being marginalized and excluded from mainstream tournaments, they created their own platforms within historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) like Tuskegee Institute. The design of the programme reflects both cultural heritage and graphic artistry of that era. Printed with ink on paper, it is a testament to the determination and resilience of those who fought against racial discrimination. The Greenwood Tennis Club played a significant role in organizing this event, providing opportunities for talented athletes to showcase their skills. Today, this photograph serves as an invaluable artifact housed at the National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC), preserving our collective memory. It symbolizes not only the progress made since then but also highlights how far we still have to go towards achieving true equality. As we reflect upon this powerful image captured by an unknown photographer, let us remember those who paved the way for future generations through sport - breaking barriers while leaving behind an enduring legacy that continues to inspire us all.
