EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1938 by Edwin Rosskam, transports us to a sugar cane plantation near Ponce, Puerto Rico. The image showcases the daily life of hardworking men as they unload bundles of sugar cane onto a train destined for the refinery. With oil overlaying the photograph, it exudes an early American charm that captures the essence of rural farming in Latin America. The scene depicts a group of farmers laboring under the scorching Caribbean sun amidst vast fields filled with lush sugarcane plants. These resilient workers play a crucial role in harvesting this valuable crop that sustains Puerto Rico's economy. Their dedication and strength are evident as they meticulously load each bundle onto the awaiting train. Rosskam's lens not only immortalizes these unsung heroes but also sheds light on their contribution during an era marked by President Roosevelt's New Deal policies. This photograph is part of Farm Security Administration (FSA) documentation, which aimed to highlight agricultural practices and improve conditions for farmers across America. As we gaze upon this historic snapshot, we are reminded of Puerto Rico's rich agricultural heritage and its reliance on industries such as sugarcane production. It serves as a testament to the resilience and determination embedded within Puerto Rican culture—a reminder that even amidst challenging circumstances, communities come together to ensure progress and prosperity for all.
