EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "BLACK EXODUS: HANDBILL, 1877" takes us back to a significant moment in history. This handbill, printed in 1877 at Lexington, Kentucky, serves as a powerful testament to the African American experience during that era. The image showcases a text-heavy poster urging black individuals to embark on a journey towards Kansas. During this late period of migration known as the Black Exodus, many African Americans sought refuge and better opportunities in the West. Facing racial discrimination and limited prospects in the South, they were enticed by promises of freedom and equality offered by states like Kansas. This historical artifact not only captures the essence of hope but also represents resilience and determination within the black community. It symbolizes their unwavering spirit to seek better lives for themselves and future generations despite facing immense challenges. The visual composition of this handbill is striking; its bold typography demands attention while conveying an urgent message. Through this print from Granger Art on Demand, we are transported back to an important chapter in American history where marginalized communities fought against adversity with courage and conviction. As we reflect upon this image today, it serves as a reminder of how far we have come since those times while acknowledging that there is still work to be done towards achieving true equality for all.
