EDITORS COMMENTS
This lantern slide depicts a group of school children in Salisbury, the capital city of Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), during the late 1890s. The British South Africa Company, under the leadership of Cecil Rhodes, had established the settlement of Salisbury in 1890, marking the beginning of European colonization in this part of Africa. The children in the photograph, dressed in their Sunday best, are seen gathered around a teacher, who is likely instructing them in the classroom. The children's attire suggests that they come from diverse ethnic backgrounds, reflecting the multicultural nature of the early colonial society. The boys wear short trousers and shirts, while the girls wear long dresses and headscarves. The lantern slide offers a glimpse into the educational landscape of Salisbury during the late 19th century. The children appear engaged and focused, indicating a strong commitment to learning despite the challenges of a new and unfamiliar environment. The presence of a lantern slide suggests that this image was used for educational purposes, possibly to inspire curiosity and interest in the children about their own history and the wider world. The photograph provides a poignant reminder of the early days of European colonization in Zimbabwe and the impact it had on the lives of local children. It also underscores the importance of education as a means of empowerment and social mobility, even in the most challenging of circumstances.
