Picturing Black History is an ongoing collaborative effort between originsosu and gettyarchive that seeks to uncover untold stories and rarely seen images of the Black experience; providing new context around culturally significant moments by bringing them into the light and into view.⁠ Our first featured piece of 2022, ‘Martin Delany, Unapologetic African’, details the life of 19th century abolitionist, physician, soldier, and journalist, Martin Robison Delany. Developing the North Star newspaper with Frederick Douglass, he was one of the earliest writers to explore what became known as Black nationalism.⁠ The full article by Howard University graduate in Mass Communications and African Studies, James R. Morgan III, can be found via our bio link.⁠ 📷: Corbis via Getty Images I circa 1863 I #GettyImages #PreservingThePast #GettyArchive⁠ ⁠ #picturingblackhistory #martindelany #UShistory #blackhistory #panafricanism #UScivilwar #africanamericanhistory #martinrobisondelany #historyphot...
