Picture No 12699083
Date 1905
Description Odessa - supporters of the Black Hundreds
Details

'The little father is with us': revolutionaries bearing the Tsar's portrait through the streets of Odessa (in Ukraine). On the first publication of the Tsar's manifesto promising liberty to Russia, the people went almost frantic with joy, and revolutionaries paraded the streets with songs and exultations. Very soon, however, the manifestants discovered that the hand of the Bureaucracy was still strong and the rejoicings ended in hideous street conflicts and in a massacre of Jews as horrible as that of Kishineff (Kishinev pogram, modern Moldova, 1903). Supporters of the ultra-nationalist Black Hundred movement in Russia.
