EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures a significant moment in history - the Children's Strike of 1894. In this image, we see a procession of children marching towards Hyde Park in London to protest against their treatment by organ grinders. These brave children were part of the Organ Dancers Union, who would dance in the streets to organ music in order to attract crowds for the organ grinders. However, they were fed up with receiving none of the earnings and decided to take a stand.
The sight of these young protesters marching through the streets is both heartbreaking and inspiring. Their determination to fight for fair treatment despite their tender age is truly remarkable. The banner they carry proudly displays their message: "Why should we collect the crowd and get none of the takings?"
As they make their way towards Hyde Park, accompanied by police officers and onlookers, one can't help but feel admiration for these courageous children. This image serves as a reminder of the power that even the youngest members of society hold when they come together for a common cause.
This historical photograph is not just a snapshot from the past; it is a testament to resilience, unity, and standing up against injustice - values that are timeless and universal.
