July 18, 1899

125 years ago, a group of newsboys in Long Island City went on strike against Joesph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst after the price for papers was raised.

125 years ago, these kids changed the futures for years of children to come.

Happy Newsies Strike Day <3

Happy 125th anniversary of the end of the Newsboys' Strike of 1899 to all who celebrate! 🎉🗞️

Those newsies paved the way for so many child-welfare practices across America. (And a damn good musical!) They are my heroes.

Underrated lines from Newsies Live

“All right, take it easy. It’s a bunch’a trees.” -Jack (After Medda talks about Jacks artistry)

“Miss Medda, you’re on!” “I am? How am I doin’? Aha! Ugh. *turns to Jack/Davey* Aha!” -Medda

“-And I never lied… I didn’t tell you everything.” -Katherine

“-Well I’ll call you sweetheart if you spot me 50 papes, huh?” “Drop the cash, and move it along!” “Oh, well whatever happened to romance?” -Race (that entire scene is probably one of my favourites)

“Hey Jack, you still thinkin’? “Sure he is. Can’t you smell smoke?” -Les and Race

And many more but i cant remember them 😢

Something that lives in my mind rent free.

What if the 17 year old Jack doesn’t love Santa Fe as much as he used to anymore? Sure, he thinks about it and has fantasies about it… but it’s more of a like, “I have to go to Santa Fe because this is my persistence for it. I need to go there because I need to fulfill my own dreams for my younger self.”

“Newsies of New York City.. WE WON!!!”

125 years ago today, the newsboys of New York won their strike against Joesph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst. These kids changed the lives for the generations to come, and were more inspirational than they could’ve dreamed of. And their story made a damn good musical!
