EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "NEW YORK CITY: STRIKE, 1910" captures a pivotal moment in the labor movement of early 20th century America. The image depicts two stern-faced policemen arresting a defiant striker during an Express strike in New York City. Taken in 1910, this powerful photograph showcases the raw emotions and tensions that permeated the city during this tumultuous period. The scene unfolds against the backdrop of an elevated train track, symbolizing progress and modernity. A majestic horse stands nearby, seemingly unfazed by the commotion surrounding it. The presence of these elements highlights the clash between tradition and change that defined New York City at that time. The determined expressions on both the policemen's faces and the arrested striker's reveal a struggle for power between those fighting for workers' rights and those tasked with maintaining law and order. This visual representation encapsulates not only a specific moment but also serves as a testament to the larger social dynamics at play. Photographed by Granger from NYC / The Granger Collection, this historical print offers viewers a glimpse into an era marked by intense labor disputes and societal transformations. It invites us to reflect upon how far we have come since then while acknowledging that some battles still persist today.
