EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful photograph captures the essence of the Grape Strike that took place in 1970, as workers united against grape growers in Delano, California. The image showcases a bumper sticker proudly displayed on a car's exterior, serving as a symbol of support for the striking laborers. Marion Trikosko expertly captured this moment in May 1970, immortalizing an important chapter in American history. The bumper sticker itself is adorned with bold text that reads "GRAPE STRIKE" and features a skull emblem, representing the intensity and urgency of the workers' fight for their rights. This photograph serves as a reminder of the resilience and determination exhibited by these immigrant workers who tirelessly fought for better working conditions and fair treatment. The significance of this image lies not only in its representation of one specific strike but also in its broader implications within the agricultural industry. It highlights how collective action can bring about change and shed light on injustices faced by marginalized communities. As we reflect upon this historical moment through Granger Art on Demand's print, it is crucial to recognize the efforts made by organizations like United Farm Workers to advocate for worker rights. This photo serves as a testament to their struggle while reminding us all of our responsibility to stand up against exploitation wherever it may occur.
