Raising Awareness – Vintage Protest Photo, Miami Beach, 1967. This vintage black and white photograph shows a group of Go-Go dancers picketing outside a motel in Miami Beach. Dressed in their stage costumes from Jilly’s nightclub, they protest a rent increase they say broke a verbal housing agreement. Drummers and fellow performers join in solidarity. Miami Beach in the late 1960s was known for its entertainment scene, and this moment—part protest, part performance—stood out as both public and personal. This print suits interiors that lean mid-century, socially reflective, or narrative-driven. A strong match for collections focused on 1960s black and white photography, American pop culture, or spaces that embrace bold moments without spectacle.
About the Artist

A group of Go-Go girls who claim they had a verbal agreement with the management of a motel regarding their residency there through the season, picketed the motel here 2/16 in protest of a rent hike, which they feel was not in the agreement. Dressed in the costumes they wear during their act at Jilly's, a Miami Beach nightclub, the girls were joined by other entertainers and a few drummers who have the same gripe.
