Roger Smith, photographer Date The date the document or image was originally published or created, in YYYY-MM-DD format (see fields guide for further details) June, 1943 Description Describe key features of the primary source and how they help to answer the research question at hand (usually the significance of a space or place to a text and/or its author or readers) This is a photograph of a street scene in Harlem, New York in June of 1943. It is part of The Farm Security Administration - Office of War Information Photograph Collection, a gathering of black-and-white negative prints from a variety of sources, which comprise a photographic history of life in America from 1935-1944. In The Color Purple, Nettie writes to Celie about visiting Harlem, New York prior to leaving for Africa on her missionary trip. This photograph depicts Harlem, New York as Nettie may have observed it during her time there. Nettie is amazed that black people “own a whole section” of the beautiful New York City. She notes the number of churches and that she sees “colored people” in motor cars and fine houses with “indoor toilets” and “gas or electric lights.” The people Nettie meets in Harlem are kind and generous to her and the family’s missionary causes. In this photograph, one can see houses, “motor cars,” storefronts, and the people of Harlem conversing jovially on the street. To Nettie, Harlem, New York evokes a sense of hope for black people in America especially when compared to the environment in which she grows up.

However, in the novel there is not an actual description of the Mayors house in Georgia, I think that this photograph is a good representation of what the Mayors house may have looked like. The downside of this photograph is that the house may be a little more fancy than what would have been expected from the time period of The Color Purple but it still represents a house fit for a Mayor.

Description Describe key features of the primary source and how they help to answer the research question at hand (usually the significance of a space or place to a text and/or its author or readers) This still image provides an example of what Pa’s house might have looked like during the time period The Color Purple takes place. During this time in Georgia, African Americans lived in small houses in close proximity to each other. We can gather from this image that they lived in small houses made of wood and fences surrounding them. When we are first introduced to Pa’s house in the beginning of the book, we know that it is a small run down house that they live in. Once Celie is married off, she doesn’t come back to this house for a very long time. After Pa dies, Celie finds out that the house is actually her and her sister Nettie’s. Celie returns to a refurbished house and eventually settles into her newfound work of making pants and having Nettie and her family move in. This house is an important part of the book because it is where Celie grew up in abuse and having children at a very young age to moving back with a stronger and brighter mind. https://202s15.cesaunders.net/files/original/2b71c8a5c4a15c04b13d441fc6bc3c63.png 30631233630695cd682dae9dc43e197f https://202s15.cesaunders.net/files/original/d7e5f7cd107f6faf636ff6ffac7918c6.png a2450aec127d8a4b182887b8fd7037aa Hyperlink A link, or reference, to another resource on the Internet.

Benjamin Elijah Mays and Joseph William Nicholas Date The date the document or image was originally published or created, in YYYY-MM-DD format (see fields guide for further details) 1933 Description Describe key features of the primary source and how they help to answer the research question at hand (usually the significance of a space or place to a text and/or its author or readers) This book is an analytic study of the importance and content of black churches from both urban and rural areas. Mays and Nicholson, both prominent religious figures within the black community, decided to conduct an intensive study of 609 urban churches and 185 rural churches. After their study, they were able to break down the history of black churches, their use and purpose, the responsibilities of a minister and many more subjects within the topic. The book also criticizes the sermons or teaching techniques of most black ministers for focusing on the "magical" aspect of religion rather than the sociological, political and racial ones. The authors believed that by making sure the religious sermons connected with the daily issues that black people faced, the black community would be more educated and more aware. The book says how churches became one of the few things black people could finally control. This book is similar to The Color Purple in how the church became a place of coping and enduring sufferance for the black community including Celie. Celie turns to God in her times of hardship and abuse. The authors highlight on this by also showing that black people turned to the church during much discrimination and inhumane treatment.

African Americans living in Georgia in this time period tended to live in smaller houses since they did not have a lot of money. Therefore, this image gives us clues that houses in this time period owned by African Americans in the south were smaller and often run down. What we know about Mr. ___'s house is that it is on a farm in Georgia. This is also where Celie moved once she married Mr. ___, who beat Celie like no other. She continued to live here until she couldn't take it any longer and temporarily moved to Tennessee with Shug. This house is a very important place in the book because it is where Celie started a new, but not much better, chapter in her life after being beat and raped by her father at her old house.

Financial Times Date The date the document or image was originally published or created, in YYYY-MM-DD format (see fields guide for further details) 1917-07-31 Description Describe key features of the primary source and how they help to answer the research question at hand (usually the significance of a space or place to a text and/or its author or readers) In the novel, The Color Purple, rubber plantations are a main concern for those living in Africa. The rubber plantations were a way for big businesses to make a lot of money, but this was at the expense of the villagers in Africa. In the novel, Nettie goes to Africa to do missionary work. This work is cut short, however, because a rubber plantation is being built right in the middle of the village, “The builders wanted the village site as headquarters for the rubber plantation. It is the only spot for miles that has a steady supply of fresh water” (Walker 226). The rubber plantation directly affects the lives of the Olinka. Now the villagers must move away from their village and struggle to rebuild. The article, “Mabira Forest Rubber,” also looks at the rubber plantations, but from the point of view of the business owner. The article states that rubber production was originally successful. This supports the fact that a rubber plantation was built in the tribe. Rubber plantations were becoming popular in Africa because of their money making potential. On the other hand, the article continues to discuss the fact that the rubber plantation mentioned is slipping in economic gain. This is important to note because the plantation destroyed villages when it was built, only to become a failure later on. This relates to the novel in that the planation built in the novel could also fail and the destruction of the Olinka tribe would be for nothing. The rubber plantations appear to be a force that cannot be stopped. The African villagers cannot standup for themselves and fight the rubber plantations. This is symbolic of how Celie feels everyday. She feels that there is an overpowering force so strong that she cannot fight it. The plantation overpowering the villagers’ display how Celie feels overpowered by the men in her life.

Muriel Barrow Bell & Malcom Bell Date The date the document or image was originally published or created, in YYYY-MM-DD format (see fields guide for further details) Photographed: 1939 Printed: 1991 Description Describe key features of the primary source and how they help to answer the research question at hand (usually the significance of a space or place to a text and/or its author or readers) The building in this photo is of a praise house in Georgia in 1939, around the time of The Color Purple’s time period. Praise houses were typically one-room buildings, no more than 10 by 15 feet wide. This building has no more than four walls, a roof, and a bell outside on the steps leading up to the door. There is a good chance that the “church” that was referred to in Georgia, was similar to this praise house in Sapelo. African Americans typically gathered in buildings such as these for worship and religious services. The most interesting piece about this is the misshapen boards. It truly shows the poverty of the south during this time period, particularly in any buildings owned by the African American population. We know that Celie and her family are very poor, uneducated African Americans, and this would have been the type of building that she would have spent her time in. Many of the other places that she spent time in: school buildings, houses, shacks, would have also resembled this structure.
