EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by the renowned photographer Dorothea Lange in 1935, captures a significant moment in American history. The image depicts Texans embarking on a journey westward, seeking a fresh start in Oregon as they traverse US Highway 99 in California. During the Great Depression era, economic hardships forced many families to leave their homes behind and venture towards new opportunities. Lange's lens immortalizes this poignant scene of migration and resilience. The composition showcases an array of vehicles - from covered wagons reminiscent of earlier times to modern automobiles and trucks - symbolizing the evolving modes of transportation that facilitated this mass movement. The photo encapsulates both hope and uncertainty as these migrants navigate the open road towards an unknown future. Their determination is palpable; each face tells a story of struggle, resilience, and dreams for a better life. Lange's masterful use of photography enhances the starkness of their journey while highlighting their collective strength. Preserved within the archives at the Library of Congress, this historic image serves as a powerful reminder of America's enduring spirit during challenging times. It stands as a testament to human perseverance amidst adversity – an indelible piece capturing one chapter in our nation's rich tapestry.
