EDITORS COMMENTS
The powerful print titled "BONUS ARMY, 1932" captures a significant moment in American history. The image showcases the Bonus Brigade, a group of World War I veterans who had gathered on the steps of the U. S. Capitol for their second demonstration on July 5th, 1932. These brave men were demanding that Congress authorize payment of war bonuses they believed they were owed. In this snapshot, we see a large crowd of determined veterans standing together in front of the iconic Capitol building. They are united by their cause, as evidenced by their banners and signs advocating for justice and recognition. The atmosphere is charged with emotion as these heroes march forward with purpose. Their presence symbolizes resilience and determination in the face of adversity. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those who fought for their country during World War I. Captured early in the morning, before bustling city life begins, this image highlights not only an important political protest but also offers a glimpse into daily life at that time. It stands as a testament to both individual courage and collective action. This historical photograph from Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection preserves an essential chapter in American history while honoring those who fought bravely for their nation's freedom and rights.
