DescriptionEmployees, Hyatt Roller Bearing Company, Harrison, 1923. Few of Cone's photographs include African Americans until the 1920s. This picture indicates how Newark's workforce changed with the start of World War One, when many African Americans moved to northern cities to get wartime factory work-and leave behind segregation laws and violence in the South.
