EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph, captured by Dorothea Lange in 1939, offers a glimpse into the harsh realities faced by migrant laborers during the Great Depression. The image showcases an FSA migratory labor camp located in Brawley, California. In the foreground stands a weary father, his face etched with exhaustion after toiling all day in the pea fields. The tent platform visible behind him serves as a stark reminder of the meager living conditions endured by these hardworking individuals and their families. This standard equipment provided by Farm Security Administration camps was meant to offer some semblance of stability amidst displacement and economic turmoil. Lange's composition skillfully captures not only the physical toll of farm work but also conveys deeper themes such as forced migration and displacement. The presence of children further emphasizes the impact on family units who were uprooted from their homes in search of employment opportunities. As one gazes upon this powerful image, it becomes evident that Lange's lens has immortalized a moment frozen in time – a testament to both human resilience and societal struggle. Through her lens, she sheds light on an often-overlooked segment of American history while reminding us of our shared humanity. This historic print now resides within the Congressional Library's collection at the Library of Congress, serving as a visual record for future generations to reflect upon America's agricultural past and its enduring legacy.
