MIGRANT FARMER, 1935: A Glimpse into the Struggles of a Texan Family on the Road to Hope In this poignant photograph captured by Dorothea Lange in March 1935, we are transported back to the heart-wrenching era of the Great Depression. The image portrays a migrant family from Texas embarking on an arduous journey through California towards Oregon along U. S. Highway 99. The visual narrative unfolds before us as we witness their worn-out pick-up truck, laden with all their worldly possessions, navigating the rugged road ahead. Their faces etched with exhaustion and determination reflect both resilience and desperation. Lange's lens captures not just a moment frozen in time but also encapsulates the larger socio-economic struggles faced by countless families during that period. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of how poverty forced many working-class Americans to become migrant workers, constantly seeking employment opportunities in different regions. As part of President Roosevelt's New Deal program aimed at combating unemployment and poverty, Lange was commissioned by the Farm Security Administration (FSA) to document rural life during these challenging times. Through her lens, she sought to shed light on the plight of those often forgotten or overlooked. This evocative print from Granger Art on Demand allows us to delve into history and empathize with those who endured immense hardships while searching for better prospects out West. It stands as a testament to human resilience amidst adversity and reminds us never to forget
