EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image from October 1970, a group of young children can be seen passionately campaigning against planned cuts in free school milk and other essential services. The determination and spirit of these young campaigners is evident as they hold up placards with messages opposing the proposed cuts.
The children, who are clearly engaged in political activism at a very young age, stand together on the street to protest against the government's decision to reduce access to vital resources like free school milk. Their actions serve as a reminder that even the youngest members of society have a voice and are willing to fight for what they believe in.
As police officers look on in the background, it is clear that these children are not backing down from their cause. With balloons and signs in hand, they continue to advocate for their rights and demand better treatment for themselves and their peers.
This historic photograph captures a moment of resistance and solidarity among youth activists during a time when social welfare programs were under threat. It serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of standing up for what is right, no matter how small or young you may be.
