EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print by Dorothea Lange captures the struggles of carrot pullers from Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Arkansas, and Mexico in California during 1937. The faces of the men in the photograph tell a story of hardship and displacement as they work tirelessly from seven in the morning until noon for an average wage of thirty-five cents.
In this snapshot of American history, we see the impact of economic downturns and forced migration on agricultural workers during the Great Depression. Lange's lens focuses on the human side of labor, highlighting the dignity and resilience of these farmhands who have traveled far from their homes in search of employment.
The black-and-white image evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era when America was grappling with widespread unemployment and poverty. It serves as a reminder that behind every statistic or economic trend are real people struggling to make ends meet.
As we reflect on this photograph today, we are reminded of the importance of honoring our country's agricultural heritage and supporting those who work tirelessly to put food on our tables. Dorothea Lange's documentation through her lens continues to be a poignant reminder of our shared humanity and collective responsibility towards one another.
