EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Rehabilitation clients. Five miles outside Phoenix, Arizona. Five hundred dollar loan for poultry," was captured by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in the 1930s during the Great Depression. The image portrays a group of agricultural workers, both men and women, clad in worn-out clothing and aprons, standing in front of their makeshift chicken coops. The scene takes place five miles outside Phoenix, Arizona, in the arid countryside, where the harsh realities of the economic crisis were acutely felt. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the hardships faced by farmers and farm laborers during this period. The people in the image are part of the Farm Security Administration (FSA) program, which was established as part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal to provide relief and support to rural communities affected by the Great Depression. The five hundred dollar loan mentioned in the title refers to the financial assistance provided by the FSA to help these farmers and farm laborers establish small-scale poultry farms as a means of self-sufficiency and income generation. The image captures the determination and resilience of these individuals as they work towards rebuilding their lives amidst the challenging conditions of the time. The chickens in the background serve as a symbol of hope and the potential for economic recovery. This powerful photograph is a testament to the human spirit and the enduring strength of communities during times of hardship.
