EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in American history - the establishment of the Coan School in Norfolk, Virginia, for freedmen after the Civil War. The wood engraving, created by an American artist in 1868, showcases the determination and resilience of African Americans during Reconstruction. In this image, we see the exterior of the Coan School, a symbol of hope and progress for newly emancipated individuals seeking education. The building stands tall amidst its surroundings in Norfolk, representing a beacon of opportunity for those who were previously denied access to knowledge. A group of pupils can be seen outside the school, eagerly awaiting their chance to enter through its doors. These young minds embody both excitement and determination as they embark on their educational journey towards empowerment and equality. The setting is unmistakably Southern with hints of mid-19th century architecture prevalent throughout. This photograph serves as a reminder that even in challenging times following one of America's darkest periods, institutions like this provided vital support to uplift communities devastated by slavery. The presence of this image today allows us to reflect on how far we have come since then while acknowledging that there is still work to be done towards achieving true equality for all. It serves as a testament to the strength and resilience displayed by freedmen during this pivotal era in our nation's history.
