Description:John W. Mosley was a self-taught African-American photographer born in 1907. As a chronicler of Black social and cultural life in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Mosley's photographs confirm the existence of a viable, productive and stable African-American community in the city from the 1930s through 1969. He not only captured rich traditions and the things that Black people held dear, but also documented the community's responses to post-Depression years, World War II, the post-war years and the era of the civil rights movement. Mosley's photographs provide an accurate, sensitive and revealing look at the nuances of his people. His photographs are provocative and provide an inside view of an African-American community from someone who was intimately connected to it. This book is the first of its kind about Philadelphia's African-American community and includes celebrities and prominent national and international known who interacted with Black Philadelphians. If a picture is worth a thousand words, John W. Mosley's photographs speaks volumes. One of his relatives states "His eye was always on the positive."
