EDITORS COMMENTS
El Monte Federal Subsistence Homesteads, California, 1936: A snapshot of resilience and determination in the face of adversity. This photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange, captures the image of one hundred homes in El Monte, California, each with three quarters of an acre of land, all occupied. The average family income during this time was a meager eight hundred dollars per annum, a stark reminder of the economic hardships brought about by the Great Depression. The scene is one of simple, yet determined living. Farmhands and their families, dressed in their best, work together to maintain their small plots of land, growing vegetables to sustain themselves. Children play amongst the houses, their laughter echoing through the quiet countryside. Mothers multitask, tending to their young while also caring for their gardens. The El Monte Federal Subsistence Homesteads were established under the Farm Security Administration (FSA), a New Deal program designed to provide relief to rural families suffering from the effects of the Depression. Dorothea Lange, a photographer for the FSA, documented the lives of these families, capturing their stories and providing a visual record of a pivotal moment in American history. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the strength and resourcefulness of the human spirit, even in the most challenging of times. The buildings, though humble, stand as testament to the determination of their occupants to provide for their families and build a better future. The gardens, though small, represent the hope and optimism that bloomed amidst the hardships of the Great Depression.
