August, 1919 Striking chorus girls leaving Actor's Equity Association headquarters for a parade along Broadway. This was the big Broadway strike that made Equity a strong union. In the 1930s the Screen Actors Guild organized their own union. Until the 1919 strike, chorus were required to buy their own hosiery, were unpaid for weeks of rehearsals and had no protection if a show bombed out of town. The cast could be dumped unceremoniously without a ticket home. Equity changed that and so much more. From New York City Historic Memories, FB.
