EDITORS COMMENTS
The Arnold children and their mother stand proudly on their newly fenced land, a symbol of hope and resilience in the midst of the Great Depression. This poignant photograph, captured by Dorothea Lange in 1939, transports us to Western Washington's Thurston County, specifically Michigan Hill. In this snapshot of American rural life, we witness the determination etched on each family member's face. The young boys exude curiosity and innocence as they explore the fields surrounding them. Their sister stands beside her mother, mirroring her strength and grace. Together, they embody the essence of hardworking farm families during this challenging era. Lange's composition draws our attention to the strawberry plants dotting the landscape—a testament to their livelihoods dependent upon agriculture. The cleared land signifies progress amidst adversity; it represents a fresh start for this resilient family. This image is part of Lange's extensive documentation for the Farm Security Administration (FSA), an agency created to combat rural poverty during these trying times. Through her lens, she captures not only faces but also stories—stories that shed light on both individual struggles and collective resilience. As we gaze at this historical treasure from within the Library of Congress archives, we are reminded of America's enduring spirit even in times of hardship. It serves as a reminder that no matter how difficult life may be, there is always room for growth and hope.
