EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in time at Rust University in Holly Springs, Mississippi, in the year 1902. The image, which is currently housed in the Jean Blackwell Hutson Division of the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture at the New York Public Library, depicts a group of African American boys intently focused on their mechanical drawing assignments. The boys, dressed in collared shirts and suspenders, sit at their desks, their hands holding pencils and rulers as they carefully sketch out intricate designs. The classroom setting is adorned with blackboards, chalk, and various drawing tools, while the windows allow natural light to filter in. The furniture, including the wooden desks and chairs, exudes a sense of tradition and stability. The boys' serious expressions and postures convey their dedication to their education, particularly in the field of mechanical drawing. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a valuable record of African American education during the early 20th century in the United States. The identity of the photographer remains unknown, but their work serves as an important reminder of the rich heritage and history of African American education in America.
