"Sunday morning, Newcastle Quayside, Newcastle on Tyne": early 20th century photograph of a mass meeting addressed by a woman standing in a carriage, an associate of the speaker, a well-dressed black man in a top hat, is leaning on the vehicle. Masts of sailing ships can be seen in the background. The subject of the meeting is unclear, there are no banners with slogans and the audience is largely male (and wearing flat caps)
