EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1937, depicts a group of African American women being transported from Memphis, Tennessee to an Arkansas plantation. The image bears witness to the harsh realities of the Great Depression era, particularly for agricultural workers and their families. The women, dressed in simple, worn clothing, sit wearily in the back of a truck, their faces etched with fatigue and resignation. Some cling to their belongings, while others look off into the distance, perhaps contemplating the uncertain future that awaits them on the plantation. The image is a poignant reminder of the economic struggles and social inequalities that defined this period in American history. Taken during Lange's tenure with the Farm Security Administration (FSA), the photograph is a powerful testament to the human spirit and resilience in the face of adversity." "The photograph, titled 'Women being transported from Memphis, Tennessee to an Arkansas plantation,' is a haunting image that continues to resonate with viewers today. It is a poignant reminder of the past, and a reminder of the progress that has been made, but also of the ongoing challenges faced by marginalized communities. The image is a valuable historical document, and a testament to the important work of Dorothea Lange and the FSA in recording the human stories of the Great Depression era." "The photograph is a nitrate negative, and was taken during Lange's tenure with the Office of War Information (OWI) and the FSA. It is part of the Dorothea Lange Collection at the Library of Congress. The image is not to be used for commercial purposes, and is available for educational and research purposes only.
