This photo is one of only a few images that include African American pioneers in the “settler” story of Los Angeles. By including this image--front and center--the contributor is making visible a different narrative and history of LA at this particular time and space. In many ways the archive is haunted by this absence and the contributor is asking the question, what does it mean to make this history visible? What does it mean to do so now?
