Mitchell Esajas wijst met zijn #blackarchives erop dat de geschiedenis zoals we die op school en via rituelen zoals op #4mei meekrijgen een (re)constructie van het verleden is. Een (re)constructie waarin er keuzes worden gemaakt over welke verhalen wel worden verteld en welke worden verzwegen. 2/4

The image features a tribute to Dorothy Porter Wesley (1905–1995), known as the "First Lady of Black Archives." It highlights her role as the first professionally trained Black librarian at Howard University and her contributions to transforming the Moorland-Spingarn Research Center into a premier repository of African-American history and culture. The image includes a black-and-white photograph of Wesley and the logo of the American Association of School Librarians (AASL).
This Black History Month, we honor Dorothy Porter Wesley, who built one of the most significant archives of African-American history at Howard University. Her work keeps Black history alive. #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackArchives bit.ly/42YtOV3
