EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event at the Jewish Pedagogical College and Agricultural School in Minsk, during the years 1922-1923. In the center of the image stands Comrade Frankfurt, the director of this esteemed institution. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation and determination as students and faculty gather for a general meeting.
During this time, in the early stages of Stalin's rule, efforts were made to establish a Jewish homeland in the Soviet Far East. This led to the creation of the Jewish Autonomous Region with its capital city Birobidzhan. The album from which this photograph originates contains 274 images documenting the early years of Birobidzhan starting from late 1920s.
The image showcases a diverse group of individuals including children, teenagers, men, and women actively participating in discussions about education, agriculture, politics, and religion. Their hands are raised high in enthusiasm as they engage in dialogue about shaping their future within this new administrative territory.
This historical snapshot provides us with a glimpse into a pivotal moment where young minds were being nurtured and empowered to build a better tomorrow for themselves and their community. It serves as a reminder of resilience, unity, and hope amidst challenging times.
