EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Camp of Migratory Agricultural Workers, Imperial County, California," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1937 during the Great Depression. The image offers a poignant glimpse into the harsh realities faced by displaced and impoverished families who were forced to migrate from one agricultural region to another in search of work. The photograph depicts a makeshift camp, or Hooverville, named after President Herbert Hoover, located in the arid landscape of Imperial County, California. The camp was home to thousands of migrant workers who lived in tents and makeshift shelters, often enduring harsh weather conditions and limited access to basic necessities. Lange, a photographer for the Farm Security Administration (FSA), captured this image as part of the New Deal's efforts to document the living conditions of the country's most vulnerable populations during the Great Depression. The FSA aimed to raise awareness and secure federal assistance for those affected by the economic downturn. The photograph shows a group of people huddled around a fire, their faces etched with concern and exhaustion. The scene is one of desperation, yet there is a sense of community and resilience among the camp's residents. The image is a powerful reminder of the human cost of economic displacement and the importance of addressing the root causes of poverty and inequality. The photograph is a nitrate negative, a type of photographic film that was commonly used in the 20th century. It is now part of the Dorothea Lange Collection at the Library of Congress, which includes over 17,000 photographs taken by Lange between 1935 and 1940. The collection is an invaluable resource for scholars, historians, and anyone interested in understanding the social and economic history of the United States during the Great Depression.
