description

This black and white photograph depicts a group of 14 unidentified black men in military uniforms posing in front of a building at Hampton Institute (now Hampton University) in Virginia. The men are seated and standing in rows, with a sign in front of them that reads "Hampton Institute." Hampton Institute, founded after the Civil War, was instrumental in providing educational and vocational training for African Americans and Native Americans. This image likely dates to the early 20th century, reflecting Hampton Institute's role in military training and education for Black students.
