EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the Harris & Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress, Mrs. Maud Wilson Littleton, a prominent activist and wife of attorney Martin Wiley Littleton, is shown holding the Monticello Petitions in 1912. The Monticello Petitions were a series of documents signed by over 150,000 African Americans from across the United States, urging President Theodore Roosevelt to establish a national commission to investigate and address the widespread violence and discrimination against black Americans in the southern states. Mrs. Littleton's determined expression and the solemnity of the occasion are palpable in this powerful image. She is dressed in a high-collared blouse and a long, flowing skirt, her hands clasping the heavy petitions with a firm grip. The background is blurred, drawing the viewer's focus to the activist and her cause. The Monticello Petitions marked a significant moment in the history of the civil rights movement in the United States. They were the first mass petition campaign led by African Americans and helped to bring national attention to the issue of racial violence and discrimination. Mrs. Littleton's role in this campaign demonstrates her commitment to social justice and her courage in standing up for the rights of her community. This photograph is a testament to the important work of activists like Mrs. Littleton, who dedicated their lives to fighting for equality and justice in the face of adversity. It serves as a reminder of the progress that has been made in the fight for civil rights, as well as the ongoing work that still needs to be done.
