Picture of the day

Ford Strikers Riot is a 1941 photograph that shows an American strikebreaker getting beaten by United Auto Workers (UAW) strikers who were picketing at the Ford Motor Company's Rouge Plant in Dearborn, Michigan. Milton Brooks, a photographer for The Detroit News, captured the image on April 3, 1941, and it won the inaugural Pulitzer Prize for Photography in 1942. The photograph has been called a portrayal of the struggle in America between capital and labor. During the incident, a peaceful picketing of the Ford Motor Company was interrupted when a single man clashed with the UAW strikers. The man ignored the advice of the Michigan State Police and crossed the picket lines. Brooks, who was waiting with other photojournalists outside the Ford factory gates, took only one photograph and said: "I took the picture quickly, hid the camera ... ducked into the crowd ... a lot of people would have liked to wreck that picture."Photograph credit: Milton Brooks; restored by Yann Forget

Tip of the day... Stop by the Reference Desk Do you have a difficult question you can't find the answer to on your own? Or, would you like to take a break from editing and perhaps share your knowledge with others who have questions? If so, then take a trip to the Wikipedia reference desk to ask or answer those tough questions. The Wikipedia reference desk works like a library reference desk; ask a question there and Wikipedia volunteers will try to answer it. This is great if you're doing research and need to know where to find a particular piece of information, or perhaps just want the answer to a trivia question. Note: Giving out legal or medical advice is prohibited, but they can point you towards relevant articles you can check for yourself. If you need general help with creating and editing articles on Wikipedia, try Wikipedia:Questions or ask at the Help desk. New editors might find the friendly atmosphere at the Teahouse great for getting editing advice.
