EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1865 transports us back in time to the bustling harbor of Kingston, Jamaica. The scene depicts a group of remarkable women known as stevedores, hard at work coaling a Royal Mail Steam-Packet. These female workers, dressed in traditional West Indian attire, showcase their strength and resilience as they unload baskets filled with coal onto the steam boat. The wood engraving captures the essence of this historic moment, showcasing the dedication and determination of these Jamaican women who defied societal norms by taking on physically demanding labor typically reserved for men. Their presence challenges gender roles and highlights their invaluable contribution to maritime trade during this era. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, it is impossible not to be captivated by the intricate details etched into each figure's expression. The artist masterfully conveys both physical exertion and pride on these African American women's faces as they go about their daily work. This image serves as a powerful reminder of the often overlooked stories that make up our shared history. It celebrates the strength and resilience of these unsung heroes while shedding light on an important chapter in Jamaica's past.
