**Strike Committee at Mill Gate: A Glimpse into America's Industrial Turmoil**
This striking photograph, captured by renowned photographer George Grantham Bain of the Bain News Service between c1910 and c1915, offers a poignant glimpse into the tumultuous world of American industrial labor during World War I. The image depicts a group of determined individuals gathered at Mill Gate in Passaic, New Jersey - an epicenter of textile production.
The Strike Committee, comprised largely of young men clad in worn cloth and fabric-covered overalls, stands united against the backdrop of a sprawling factory complex. Their faces etched with determination and frustration, they represent the collective voice of workers fighting for better wages, working conditions, and labor rights amidst an era marked by rapid industrialization.
This photograph not only captures the raw emotion of this pivotal moment in American history but also serves as a testament to the resilience and solidarity of those who fought tirelessly for their rights. As part of Bain News Service's extensive archive, it provides a unique window into the lives and struggles of working-class Americans during an era marked by significant social change.
