ARKANSAS - SHACK, 1935. A Glimpse into the Struggles of Poverty during the Great Depression
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This powerful photograph by Ben Shahn captures a squatter's shack in Arkansas during the height of the Great Depression in October 1935. The image portrays a harsh reality that many Americans faced during this challenging era. The dilapidated wooden structure stands as a symbol of poverty and destitution, surrounded by dirt and neglect. Its exterior tells tales of hardship endured by its inhabitants, who were forced to make do with limited resources and meager living conditions. Shahn's lens offers us an intimate view into the lives of those affected by economic turmoil, providing insight into their daily struggles for survival. This photograph serves as a reminder that even amidst adversity, resilience prevails. Taken under the auspices of Roosevelt's New Deal program, this image is part of Shahn's documentation efforts for the Farm Security Administration (FSA). Through his lens, he aimed to shed light on social issues plaguing America at that time while advocating for change. As we reflect upon this poignant snapshot from history, it prompts us to appreciate how far society has come since then while reminding us not to forget those who still face similar challenges today.
