EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photograph taken on January 23,1920, we witness a remarkable moment of inclusivity and artistic expression. The image showcases Miss Ethel Whalley, a talented 15-year-old pupil at the Homerton Residential School for the Deaf and Dumb Authorities in Europe. Against all odds, Miss Whalley has penned an extraordinary play that is now being rehearsed by her fellow pupils – some blind, others deaf or dumb. This powerful display of unity transcends their disabilities as they come together to bring her vision to life on stage. Seated alone at her desk with determination etched across her face, Miss Whalley embodies strength and resilience. Her passion for writing shines through as she takes on the role of playwright within this vibrant community of young actors. This photograph serves as a testament to the boundless potential that lies within every individual, regardless of their abilities. It captures not only the beauty of youth but also highlights how disabled individuals can overcome societal barriers to create something truly extraordinary. The legacy left behind by these courageous children reminds us that art knows no boundaries and has the power to unite even those who are often marginalized. Their story inspires us all to embrace diversity and celebrate the indomitable spirit within each person's heart.
