SHARECROPPER, 1936 - A Glimpse into the Lives of Lewis Hunter and his Family
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this poignant photograph taken by Carl Mydans in 1936, we are transported to Ladys Island, Beaufort, South Carolina. The image captures Lewis Hunter and his family standing outside their modest home, offering a glimpse into the harsh realities faced by African American sharecroppers during the Great Depression. The composition is filled with raw emotions as each member of the family tells their own story through their expressions. Lewis stands tall, portraying strength and resilience as he shoulders the burden of providing for his loved ones. His wife stands beside him, her headscarf symbolizing both practicality and pride. Their children surround them - a young boy wearing a cap that seems too big for his small frame; a little girl peering curiously at the camera; and a toddler held lovingly in her mother's arms. Their dirty clothes speak volumes about their daily struggles on the farm. This photograph serves as an important historical document from an era marked by economic hardship and racial inequality. It sheds light on the working class families who were often forgotten amidst political debates surrounding New Deal policies. As we gaze upon this powerful image today, let us remember those who endured poverty with dignity while striving to build better lives for themselves and future generations.
