EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a group of determined women from New Jersey as they gather at the Capitol for a prohibition hearing on 12 April 1926. The image, taken by an anonymous American photographer in the early 20th century, showcases the power and resilience of these women who came together to fight against alcohol consumption. In this historic snapshot, we witness a crowd of protesters passionately advocating for their cause. The women stand united, holding signs and banners with powerful messages that demand change. Their presence at the Capitol exemplifies their commitment to activism and social justice. The building itself serves as a backdrop to this significant moment in history. Its grandeur symbolizes the weightiness of the issue being debated inside its walls. As these brave activists rally outside, their voices echo through time, reminding us of their unwavering determination to bring about societal transformation. This photograph is not only a testament to the strength and courage of these New Jersey women but also represents a broader movement across America during this era. It serves as a visual reminder of how ordinary individuals can come together to challenge existing norms and fight for what they believe in. Preserved within private collections today, this image continues to inspire generations with its depiction of female empowerment, collective action, and advocacy for change during one of America's most transformative periods - the Roaring Twenties.
