EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the Doukhobor Invasion of Yorkton, Canada. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this image is part of a private collection. In the outskirts of Yorkton, men and women are seen entering the town carrying ploughs while leading a march filled with songs of praise. The sightless eyes of blind individuals among them highlight their disabilities and infirmities. This invasion was not one of violence or conquest but rather a peaceful demonstration by the Doukhobors, who were known for their religious beliefs. The Doukhobors were immigrants from Russia seeking refuge in Canada due to religious persecution. They believed in non-violence and communal living, which often clashed with mainstream society's norms at that time. Their arrival caused quite a stir as they challenged traditional Canadian values. In this photograph, we see them hitching agricultural vehicles and farm equipment together as means of transport towards their new home. The presence of threshing machines signifies their commitment to agriculture and farming practices. This image serves as a reminder of the struggles faced by these courageous individuals as they sought freedom and acceptance in North America during that era. It is an important historical document capturing both immigration patterns and religious diversity within Canadian society.
