Members of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union (ILGWU), carrying placards reading "Chiselers Get Out!," "Hoodlums Can't Make Dresses," "We Will Not Be Intimidated," and "On Strike, Carousel Frocks" as they protest on 35th Street between 7th and 8th Avenues, in the Garment District, February 25, 1959. The demonstration protested the beating of ILGWU organizer Sol Greene at his New Jersey home, with Greene blaming the assault on underworld characters colluding with outlaw garment shops to undercut Union manufacturers.
