EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment in American history as a large crowd of pacifists gathered on the East Steps of the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. on April 2, 1917. The demonstration was in response to President Woodrow Wilson's address to Congress, asking for a declaration of war against Germany in the midst of the First World War. At the center of the image, peace delegations from various states, including Pennsylvania, can be seen holding signs that read "We Want Peace" and "Pennsylvania." The passionate demonstrators, both men and women, rallied against the impending war, their faces etched with determination and conviction. The photograph, taken by Harris & Ewing, offers a unique glimpse into a pivotal moment in American history, as the country debated the merits of entering the conflict. The cameraman, positioned at the edge of the crowd, captures the raw emotion and energy of the demonstration, making this image an important historical document. The Harris & Ewing Collection, now part of the Library of Congress, contains over 100,000 glass negatives, many of which offer a fascinating look into American life during the early 20th century. This photograph, in particular, stands out for its powerful depiction of a peaceful protest during a time of great turmoil and uncertainty.
