Summary

Photographer Unknown (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Grantham_Bain" class="extiw" title="en:George Grantham Bain">Bain News Service</a>): <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emma_Goldman" class="extiw" title="en:Emma Goldman">en:Emma Goldman</a> on a Street Car (1917)

This candid photograph was probably taken during one of the many strikes or antiwar demonstrations in which the anarchist and feminist was active during World War I. Two years later, at the height of the Red Scare, Goldman was deported to the Soviet Union, to return in 1934, disenchanted with the Soviet experiment and with the violent political repression in Stalin's Russia. No doubt the photographer saw the irony in the patriotic Uncle Sam poster visible here behind the feisty ideologue's head.
