EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history that tells a story of resilience and adaptability. Titled "Darenth Gypsies. Evicted - television and all!", the image transports us back to Kent, England on January 22,1962. Despite being evicted from their home in Darenth Woods, these indomitable gypsies refused to let adversity dampen their spirits. The photograph showcases their determination as they carry on with life as usual along the A. 2 road. What makes this scene even more intriguing is the presence of television sets scattered among them, symbolizing their desire to stay connected with the world beyond their nomadic lifestyle. The image offers a glimpse into the social history of Romany Gypsy communities during that era. It serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by marginalized groups like these gypsies, who often found themselves at odds with mainstream society's norms and expectations. Preserved by TopFoto. co. uk, this print not only documents an important chapter in British history but also invites viewers to reflect upon themes of perseverance, cultural identity, and human resilience against adversity. It stands as a testament to the strength and resourcefulness of individuals determined to maintain their way of life despite societal pressures.
