EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Riots in Algiers" captures a tumultuous moment in history. Taken by an anonymous French School artist during the 19th century, it depicts soldiers attempting to restore order amidst the chaos that erupted between Muslim and Jewish communities in Algeria's capital city. The unrest stemmed from deep-rooted tensions exacerbated by the Cremieux Decree of 1870, which granted Algerian Jews French citizenship while denying this right to Arab and Berber populations. This discriminatory policy fueled anti-Semitic sentiments and led to violent clashes on the streets of Algiers. In this image, we witness the raw emotions of fear, anger, and desperation as individuals from both communities confront each other with clenched fists and raised voices. The blurred motion adds a sense of urgency and intensity to the scene, emphasizing the gravity of these riots. Beyond its historical significance, this photograph serves as a reminder of colonialism's impact on North Africa. It sheds light on how power dynamics shaped social relations within colonies like Algeria. As we reflect upon this image captured over a century ago, let us remember the importance of acknowledging past injustices and working towards building inclusive societies that value diversity and promote harmony among different cultures and religions.
