EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures a slice of life in the slum area of New Brighton, Pennsylvania in 1940. In the midst of poverty and struggle, a young African American girl is seen diligently ironing clothes inside her humble home. The image, taken by photographer Jack Delano as part of the Farm Security Administration (FSA) project, provides a glimpse into the daily life and challenges faced by marginalized communities during this era. The child's focused expression reveals maturity beyond her years as she takes on domestic responsibilities at such a tender age. Surrounded by worn-out furniture and walls adorned with newspaper clippings, it becomes evident that this space serves multiple purposes - both as living quarters and an impromptu classroom for learning about current events. Despite their circumstances, there is still room for playfulness as toys are scattered across the floor nearby. This juxtaposition highlights the resilience and adaptability inherent in children even amidst difficult circumstances. Through this photograph, we are reminded of the impact of social programs like the New Deal which aimed to alleviate poverty during one of America's most challenging times. It serves as a powerful reminder that behind every statistic or policy decision lies real people with hopes, dreams, struggles, and triumphs. Granger Art on Demand presents this print from their Carousel Collection to honor historical documentation through artistry while shedding light on important chapters in our nation's history.
