EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in May 1914, we witness the arrest of Bouck White, a minister and socialist known for his disruptive actions. The scene unfolds outside Calvary Baptist Church on West 57th Street in bustling New York City. The image captures the early morning hours as police officers clad in their uniforms detain White, who stands tall and defiantly wearing a suit with a neatly tied bowtie. Surrounding them are curious onlookers, intrigued by the commotion unfolding before their eyes. White's arrest is not surprising given his reputation for challenging societal norms and advocating for radical change. His disruption of a service at Calvary Baptist Church was likely an attempt to draw attention to his cause and challenge the status quo. This arresting photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the tensions that existed during this period in American history. It encapsulates both the fervor of those fighting for social justice and the determination of law enforcement to maintain order. Preserved by Granger Art on Demand, this historical snapshot allows us to glimpse into an era marked by passionate individuals like Bouck White who dared to challenge conventions, even if it meant facing arrest.
