EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in October 1945, this powerful print depicts the fervent atmosphere of a strike at Spratts food factory in East London. The workers' unified protest was ignited by their vehement opposition to a new 'clocking in' system and an altered method of wage payment. As men from various walks of life gathered together, the streets became flooded with crowds demanding justice and fair treatment. In this snapshot frozen in time, one can feel the palpable tension as people take to the streets to voice their discontent. The image showcases not only the determination and resilience of these workers but also serves as a testament to their unwavering commitment towards securing better working conditions for themselves and future generations. The significance of this moment is heightened by its historical context – taking place just months after World War Two had come to an end. It symbolizes a pivotal period where individuals were no longer willing to accept subpar treatment or exploitation within industries that were vital for rebuilding post-war societies. This poignant photograph from Memory Lane Prints encapsulates the spirit of solidarity among those who fought against injustice during challenging times. It stands as a reminder that collective action has the power to effect change, even when faced with formidable obstacles.
