EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Saw-mill men of Tuskegee Industrial Institute, 1902," showcases a group of dedicated young men at work in the lumber yard of Tuskegee Institute in Alabama, United States. Established in 1881, Tuskegee Institute was a historically black college and university that emphasized practical education and self-sufficiency. The men in this image, dressed in work clothes and standing proudly before the sawmill, embody the institute's commitment to hands-on learning and trades. The photograph, created in the early 1900s, offers a glimpse into the daily life of African American students during this era. The men, with their focused expressions and determined postures, convey a sense of purpose and determination. The sawmill, a symbol of industry and progress, stands as a testament to the institute's commitment to providing its students with the skills and knowledge necessary to succeed in a rapidly changing world. This photograph is a valuable addition to the J.L. Nichols Co. collection at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, part of the Jean Blackwell Hutson Research and Education Division of the New York Public Library. The J.L. Nichols Co. was a prominent African American-owned publishing and printing company based in New York City, and this image is believed to be one of their publications. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich history of African American education and achievement in the United States, and serves as an inspiration for future generations.
