MEN TALKING, 1938

EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a poignant moment in African American history. In this powerful photograph by Russell Lee, taken in October 1938 near Jeanerette, Louisiana, a group of African American men can be seen engaged in conversation on the porch of a small rural store. The image offers us a glimpse into their daily lives during the Great Depression era. Seated on a wooden bench, these men exude an air of camaraderie and friendship as they discuss matters that are hidden from our view. Their hats and caps speak to the fashion trends of the time while also serving as symbols of dignity and pride within their community. The presence of a child and dog adds an element of innocence to this scene, reminding us that life goes on even amidst challenging times. The storefront sign behind them hints at economic struggles faced by many during this period. Russell Lee's photograph is not just about idle chatter; it represents resilience and strength within African American communities during one of America's darkest chapters. It serves as a testament to the power of human connection and solidarity in overcoming adversity. This print is not only visually captivating but also carries historical significance. It allows us to reflect upon the hardships endured by marginalized communities while celebrating their unwavering spirit.
