EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the past with this interior view of the Printing Department at Livingstone College, Salisbury, North Carolina, United States, in 1903. The image, from the Jean Blackwell Hutson Division of the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture at the New York Public Library, offers a glimpse into the daily life of this historic African American educational institution. The room is filled with a sense of industry and purpose, as men and women work diligently at their stations. A typesetter carefully arranges letters on a printing plate, while another man adjusts a printing press. The room is filled with the hum of machinery and the sound of busy hands at work. The Printing Department was an essential part of the college's operation, providing materials for the school and producing publications for the wider community. The room is filled with a sense of pride and dedication, as the workers understand the importance of their role in the education and advancement of their people. The room is bathed in soft, natural light, casting long shadows and highlighting the intricacies of the printing blocks and machinery. The photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, transporting us back in time to a place of learning, industry, and community. This image is a testament to the rich history of African American education in the United States and the vital role that institutions like Livingstone College played in shaping the future of their students and communities. The Printing Department may have been a practical space, but it was also a place of creativity, innovation, and tradition, where the next generation of leaders were trained and prepared for the world ahead.
