EDITORS COMMENTS
NEW ORLEANS: STRIKE, 1935. Capturing the tumultuous labor unrest of the time, this powerful photograph by Ben Shahn transports us back to October 1935 in New Orleans, Louisiana. The image depicts a pivotal moment during the strike as scabs are brought in to replace striking workers. Standing on Toulouse Street Wharf, we witness an early morning scene that exudes tension and conflict. A boat docks at the wharf, its exterior weathered from years of use. This vessel symbolizes both hope for those seeking employment and despair for those fighting for their rights. Shahn's lens captures the faces of these strikebreakers - men who have chosen to cross picket lines and work against their fellow workers' cause. Their presence highlights not only the determination of management to break up strikes but also the desperation faced by many during this difficult period. This photograph is a testament to Shahn's ability to capture raw emotions through his lens. It serves as a reminder of the struggles faced by American workers in their fight for fair treatment and better conditions. Preserved by Granger Art on Demand, this historical print allows us to reflect upon our past while shedding light on ongoing labor issues today.
