Description

A black and white National Youth Administration photograph of a young African American man welding two pieces of metal together. He is squatting down low and has the metal on a small wooden table. He is wearing coveralls and protective eyewear. A man can be seen in the distance to his left. They are working in front of a concrete wall. On the back of the photograph is the stamp of the NYA. Mary McLeod Bethune was the Director of Negro Affairs for the NYA during the 1940's, so she mostly likely acquired this photograph during her time as an NYA agent.
