Focusing on the iconic 1942 photograph of Ella Watson, this book explores the intersection of race, class, and gender in Washington, D.C. Through a collaboration between photographer Gordon Parks and Watson, a government custodian, it presents an intimate portrayal of her life and the broader Black experience. The collection includes over 50 images, many previously unpublished, alongside archival materials that highlight Watson's significance in her community and the civic landscape. This work serves as both a visual narrative and a historical commentary on segregation.
