EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in American history during the Great Depression. Taken circa 1935 at the Fort Sheridan United States Army Post in Illinois, it showcases a New Deal encampment specifically set up to accommodate unemployed workers from Chicago and Milwaukee. President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal aimed to alleviate the devastating effects of the economic crisis by providing employment opportunities and training for those affected. In this image, rows of tents stand as temporary homes for these individuals who will be trained in forestry work. The stark contrast between light and shadow emphasizes the challenging times faced by these laborers. The composition highlights their resilience amidst adversity, symbolizing hope for a better future through government intervention. The military presence at Fort Sheridan underscores the significance of this program as well as its connection to national politics and governance. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of how government initiatives can impact people's lives during times of crisis. With nobody present within the frame, viewers are encouraged to reflect on both individual struggles and collective efforts towards recovery. As we observe this historical document captured by FPG/Hulton Archive/Getty Images, we are reminded that even in darkness, there is always room for progress and change.
