EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures a significant moment in American history - the parade held in Baltimore on May 19,1870, to celebrate the passing of the 15th Amendment. The amendment granted universal male suffrage, marking a major milestone in the fight for civil rights and voting equality. In this vibrant image, we witness a procession of men proudly marching through the streets of Baltimore. They carry banners and flags symbolizing their newfound right to vote. The atmosphere is electric with excitement as these individuals exercise their newly acquired political power. The lithograph itself is a testament to both artistic skill and historical significance. Its contemporary style reflects the spirit of Reconstruction-era America, capturing not only an important moment but also providing insight into societal attitudes towards democracy and progress. This image serves as a reminder of how far our nation has come in its pursuit of equal rights for all citizens. It highlights the struggles faced by African Americans during this time period while also celebrating their resilience and determination. As we reflect on this powerful visual representation, let us remember that progress often comes at great cost but is always worth fighting for. The passage of the 15th Amendment was just one step forward on a long journey towards achieving true equality for all Americans.
