EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Housing for Oklahoma Refugees. California, Kern County," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in the 1930s during the Great Depression. The image portrays a makeshift housing area, where displaced Oklahoman families, commonly known as 'Okies,' sought refuge due to the severe drought and economic hardships back home. The scene depicts a row of tents and shanties, with a woman doing laundry outside, adding a sense of routine and normalcy amidst the challenging living conditions. The photograph was taken during Lange's tenure with the Farm Security Administration (FSA), a New Deal agency aimed at providing relief to rural areas affected by the Depression. The image is an essential documentation of the era, highlighting the plight of the displaced and the struggle for basic necessities such as shelter and clean water. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the hardships faced by millions of Americans during this period and the government's efforts to provide assistance. The photograph is part of the Dorothea Lange Collection at the Library of Congress, Washington D.C. It is a nitrate negative, which was a common photographic medium during the 20th century. Lange's work during this time, including this image, significantly contributed to raising awareness about the living conditions of the impoverished population and the need for government intervention. The photograph is a testament to the resilience and determination of the human spirit, even in the face of adversity. It is a crucial piece of American heritage art and an essential historical record of a pivotal moment in the nation's history.
