EDITORS COMMENTS
Freight Train Going East Near Yuma, Arizona," is a poignant photograph taken by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1937. The image captures a moment in time during the Great Depression, a period of severe economic hardship in the United States that lasted from 1929 to 1939. The photograph depicts a freight train moving eastward through the arid landscape of Yuma, Arizona. The train, a symbol of industry and progress, is dwarfed by the vast expanse of the desert. The train cars are filled with various goods, from bales of hay to barrels and crates, indicating the transportation of essential supplies to different parts of the country. In the foreground, a lone man is seen hitchhiking on the side of the tracks. His worn clothing and weathered appearance suggest that he is among the many unemployed and impoverished Americans struggling to make ends meet during the Depression. The man's attire, consisting of a worn work shirt, trousers, and boots, is a reflection of the economic hardships faced by the working class during this era. The photograph was taken during Lange's tenure with the Farm Security Administration (FSA), a New Deal agency established to provide relief to rural areas affected by the Depression. Lange, along with other FSA photographers such as Arthur Rothstein and Russell Lee, documented the lives of ordinary Americans and brought attention to the plight of the rural population during this difficult time. This photograph is a powerful reminder of the resilience and determination of the human spirit, as well as a testament to the important role that photography plays in recording history and shedding light on social issues.
