9:00 a. m. Four Pupils Embody Resilience in Eastern Oregon County School, 1939
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this poignant photograph captured by Dorothea Lange, we are transported back to the heart of America during the Great Depression. It is 9 o'clock in the morning at an elementary school located between Pleasant Valley and Durkee in Baker County, Oregon. The image showcases four determined pupils who have braved economic hardships to attend school. With only seven enrolled students, their dedication shines through as they gather around a simple classroom desk adorned with portraits of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln – symbols of American values and leadership. A stove for heating stands prominently in the background, reminding us of the harsh realities faced by these young learners. Lange's lens captures not just a moment frozen in time but also tells a larger story about resilience amidst adversity. These children represent hope for a brighter future despite living through one of America's most challenging eras. As we delve into this heritage art piece from the Farm Security Administration collection held at the Library of Congress, it serves as a reminder that education is an invaluable tool even during times of hardship. Dorothea Lange's powerful photography continues to evoke emotions and provoke contemplation on our shared history.
