Front Lines of Social Change

Photographs of the Lincoln vets in their senior years taken by Richard Bermack, paired with photographs from the Abraham Lincoln Brigade Archives taken during the war. These pages are from Bermack’s book, Front Lines of Social Change: Veterans of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade. Many of the photos were exhibited at the Juan Carlos Center at New York University in 2008. The work shows the vibrancy and sense of purpose that comes from the commitment to the struggle for social justice that these vets exhibited throughout their lives.
