EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "MIGRANT WORKER, 1939" takes us back to a significant moment in American history. The image showcases a young Mexican girl diligently bunching carrots in a field near Edinburg, Texas. Taken by renowned photographer Russell Lee in February 1939, this photograph is an invaluable documentation of the daily life and struggles faced by migrant workers during the Great Depression era. The girl's worn bonnet and her determined expression speak volumes about the harsh realities of farm labor at that time. As she pulls carrots from the ground with her small hands, we are reminded of the immense physical exertion required for these workers to make ends meet. Lee's composition beautifully captures both the vastness of the rural Southwestern landscape and the resilience of its people. This image serves as a poignant reminder of how essential migrant workers were to sustaining agricultural production during this period. Beyond its historical significance, this photograph also highlights themes such as hard work, perseverance, and social inequality. It stands as a testament to both individual strength and collective struggle within America's working class. As we reflect on this powerful image today, it prompts us to appreciate our progress since then while acknowledging that there is still much work to be done towards achieving equality for all members of society.
