EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the resilience and determination of 50 squatter families who took over the luxurious flats at Abbey Lodge in Regents Park, London. The year was 1946, a period marked by post-war hardships and social unrest. In this image, we witness a scene reminiscent of a state of siege as these families find themselves surrounded by an impenetrable fence. The living conditions for these brave individuals were far from ideal; however, their spirits remained unbroken. Sympathizers on the outside threw food and supplies through windows to support their cause. The unity among both squatters and sympathizers is palpable in this photograph. Abbey Lodge stands tall amidst the chaos, its grandeur contrasting sharply with the struggles faced by those inside its walls. Men and women can be seen mingling within the crowd, united by their shared goal of reclaiming what they believe is rightfully theirs. As we gaze upon this monochrome snapshot from history's archives, it serves as a poignant reminder that even during times of adversity, human resilience shines through. This image encapsulates not only an act of defiance but also highlights societal issues such as housing inequality that persist to this day.
