EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of connection and communication among African American GIs during the height of World War II. Taken at Rainbow Corner, the London American Red Cross Club in 1944, the scene shows servicemen gathered around a large blackboard in the Information Bureau. Thousands of messages are scrawled on the board, some calling soldiers on leave to come and collect their mail, while others summon troops to report back to their units. The 1940s were a time of great upheaval and change, with millions of young men and women leaving their homes to serve their countries in the war effort. For African American soldiers, the experience of military service was often marked by segregation and discrimination, both at home and abroad. Rainbow Corner, located in the heart of London, provided a vital space for these troops to relax, socialize, and receive support from the Red Cross and other organizations. The photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of these brave men, who faced immense challenges both on the battlefield and in their personal lives. The messages on the blackboard serve as a reminder of the complex web of connections that bound together the military community during wartime, and the importance of communication and community in the face of adversity.
