caption: TRADE UNION During a meeting at the town's sports field, an olive picker presents her demands to a union representative who has come to the meeting and to her colleagues. The blurring of the image conveys the heartfelt drama of the speech. Photograph by Ando Gilardi (1921 - 2012) #andogilardi, from a series taken in support of the Commission of Inquiry into the Working Conditions of Olive Pickers in Calabria, established in November 1957 by CGIL union representatives and various association and parliamentarian figures. The series was also used to illustrate several photo reports in "Lavoro," the union's weekly magazine. Gioia Tauro (RC), 1957.
