EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in American history. It showcases the renowned American folk singer and composer, Pete Seeger, as he passionately performs at the opening of the Washington D. C. labor canteen in 1944. The event was sponsored by the United Federal Labor Canteen and the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO), symbolizing their support for workers' rights during a time of great social change. In this powerful image, we see Eleanor Roosevelt, an influential figure herself, seated among the audience members who have gathered to witness Seeger's performance. The crowd is filled with people from all walks of life - soldiers, sailors, laborers - united by their shared desire for entertainment and camaraderie amidst the turmoil of World War II. Seeger's presence on stage is commanding; his banjo serving as both a musical instrument and a tool for inspiring unity among those present. This singalong moment represents not only a respite from war but also highlights how music can transcend boundaries and bring people together. Photographed by Joseph Horne, this snapshot encapsulates an era when artists like Pete Seeger used their talents to uplift spirits and advocate for social justice. As part of Granger Art on Demand's collection, this print serves as a reminder of America's rich cultural heritage and its enduring commitment to equality and solidarity.
