EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1922, offers a glimpse into the bustling general office of Poro College. Located in the heart of New York City, Poro College was a pioneering institution dedicated to the education and empowerment of African American women. In this image, we see a partial view of the agents' directory and accounts, with three women diligently working at their desks. The women, dressed in professional attire, are engrossed in their tasks, whether it be filing, answering phones, or managing accounts. The office is filled with a sense of purpose and productivity, with a filing cabinet neatly arranged in the background. This photograph is a testament to the hard work and determination of the women who worked at Poro College during the 1920s. The image, held in the Jean Blackwell Hutson Division of the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture at the New York Public Library, provides a valuable insight into the occupations and professions of African American women during this era. The Poro College office scene is a poignant reminder of the rich history and heritage of African American education and achievement in the United States.
