December 23, 1974: The fourth anniversary of the sentencing in the First Leningrad Trial was marked by a hunger strike led by (from left to right): former Soviet Jewish Prisoner of Conscience, Aharon Shpilberg; National Conference on Soviet Jewry Chairman, Stanley H. Lowell; and Mrs. Bronya Chernoglaz, wife of the Prisoner of Conscience David Chernoglaz.

The strike, held on December 23 and 24, was in solidarity with one staged by the Soviet Jewish Prisoners of Conscience now in prison camps.
