EDITORS COMMENTS
NEW YORK CITY: PICKET, 1937. Captured in this powerful photograph by Arthur Rothstein, we witness the resilience and determination of striking picketers in New York City during a pivotal moment in history. The image, taken in December 1937, showcases men and women united as they rally together against injustice. Standing outside a storefront in the heart of New York City's bustling streets, these brave individuals proudly display their signs demanding fair treatment and better working conditions. Their faces reflect both defiance and hope for change as they confront the challenges that lie ahead. The presence of a policeman from the NYPD serves as a reminder of the tensions surrounding labor strikes during this era. Yet despite potential opposition, these strikers remain undeterred, unwavering in their commitment to fighting for their rights. This photograph not only captures a specific moment but also represents an important chapter in American history. It symbolizes the collective power of ordinary people coming together to challenge inequality and fight for justice. Decades later, this image continues to resonate with viewers who recognize its significance within our nation's labor movement. As we gaze upon it today, let us remember those who stood on those very streets - men and women whose courage paved the way for improved working conditions and workers' rights.
