EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Classroom scenes at Carlisle, Pa. Indian School. Ironing; women students, 1901," was captured by renowned American photographer Frances Benjamin Johnston. The image offers a glimpse into the daily life of students at the Carlisle Indian Industrial School located in Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, United States. Established in 1879, the Carlisle Indian Industrial School was a residential boarding school designed to assimilate Native American children into white American culture. In this photograph, a group of female students are seen engaged in a domestic task - ironing. They sit around a long table, each girl positioned in front of an ironing board, focused intently on their task. The ironing boards and irons, considered household appliances of the time, are arranged neatly on the table. The photograph provides a poignant insight into the practical education provided at the school. Students were taught various trades and skills, including domestic arts, to prepare them for life as independent adults in white society. The girls in this photograph, dressed in simple, uniform-like attire, embody the spirit of hard work and dedication to learning. The image also reflects the cultural shift taking place during the early 1900s, as Native American children were removed from their communities and assimilated into white American society. The ironing scene serves as a reminder of the transformative role education played in shaping the lives of these children and their futures. Frances Benjamin Johnston, a pioneering American photographer, captured this historic moment in time, preserving it for future generations to study and learn from. The photograph is now part of the collections at the Library of Congress, a testament to the rich heritage and history of America's past.
