TEXAS - YOUNG MEN, 1939. A Glimpse into the Lives of African American Youth in Waco
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph, taken by Russell Lee in November 1939, transports us back to a time when racial segregation was deeply entrenched in American society. In this powerful image, four young African American men are seated on a weathered bench against the backdrop of Waco, Texas. Dressed impeccably in suits and overcoats that speak to their working-class backgrounds, these young men exude an air of resilience and determination. Their fedora hats and neatly tied neckties add a touch of sophistication to their portraits. One man confidently holds a pipe between his fingers while another leans casually against the bench with an enigmatic smile. The significance of this photo lies not only in its portrayal of individual personalities but also as a testament to the spirit of survival during challenging times. As part of Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal initiatives, which aimed to alleviate poverty during the Great Depression era, this photograph captures the essence of hope amidst adversity. Through Russell Lee's lens, we catch a glimpse into the lives and aspirations of these young African American men who navigated life in segregated Texas with grace and dignity. This poignant image serves as a reminder that despite societal barriers imposed upon them solely based on race, they persevered with unwavering strength.
