EDITORS COMMENTS
PUERTO RICO: STRIKE, 1942. A powerful moment frozen in time, this print captures the essence of a strike meeting held by sugar workers in Yabucoa, Puerto Rico. Taken by the talented photographer Jack Delano in 1942, it serves as a visual testament to the strength and unity of the labor movement during that era. In this image, we see a crowd of determined individuals gathered outside an unidentified building. They are adorned with hats and mid-century attire, their faces reflecting both determination and hope. The photograph beautifully encapsulates the spirit of Puerto Rican workers fighting for their rights amidst challenging circumstances. The significance of this historic event cannot be overstated; it represents a pivotal moment in Puerto Rico's history when its people stood together against injustice. Through peaceful assembly and collective action, these brave men and women sought fair treatment from those who controlled their livelihoods. This striking image is not just a piece of art but also an important historical document that sheds light on the struggles faced by marginalized communities during that time period. It reminds us of our shared responsibility to fight for justice and equality for all. Displayed proudly as part of Granger Art on Demand collection, this print serves as a reminder that even in times of adversity, unity can prevail.
