EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of quiet intimacy between two black men in a Nottingham house during the 1960s. The elder man, dressed in a smart suit and holding a felt hat, sits comfortably on the bottom step of a narrow staircase. His younger companion, wearing a casual shirt and trousers, leans against the wall next to him, engrossed in conversation. The dimly lit hallway creates an intimate and cozy atmosphere, with the warm glow of a lamp casting long shadows on the worn wooden stairs. The image offers a rare glimpse into the everyday lives of black men in Nottingham during the 1960s, a time when racial discrimination was still prevalent in many aspects of British society. The men's relaxed body language and easy camaraderie suggest a deep connection and a sense of belonging, despite the challenges they may have faced. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich history and diversity of Nottingham's past, and the resilience and strength of the community in the face of adversity. It also serves as a reminder of the importance of documenting and preserving the experiences of marginalized groups, in order to better understand and celebrate our shared history.
