EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photograph taken in Merrill, Klamath County, Oregon, in September 1939, a Nebraska farmer turns to a new chapter in his life as a migrant farm worker in the American West. The image, titled "Was Nebraska Farmer, Now Migrant Farm Worker in the West," captures the sense of displacement and hardship that came with the Great Depression and the Dust Bowl, which forced many farmers off their land and into seasonal labor jobs in other regions. The man in the photograph, with weathered features and a worn hat, gazes out at the harvested fields with a mixture of sadness and determination. His clothes are worn and his hands bear the marks of a lifetime of labor. The barren landscape in the background underscores the harsh realities of the Dust Bowl era, when drought and erosion made farming in the Great Plains nearly impossible. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the human cost of the Dust Bowl and the Great Depression, and the resilience of those who were forced to leave their homes and start anew. It also speaks to the larger story of the migrant farm worker experience in America, a story of hard work, long hours, and uncertain futures. The image is part of the historic collection of Mary Evans Prints Online, and is a testament to the power of photography to capture and preserve the human experience. It is a reminder of the past, but also a reminder of the importance of empathy and understanding in the face of hardship and adversity. The photograph was taken in Merrill, Klamath County, Oregon, in September 1939. The man in the photograph was once a farmer in Nebraska, but like so many others, he was forced to leave his land and become a migrant farm worker in the West. The image is a powerful reminder of the human cost of the Dust Bowl and the Great Depression, and the resilience of those who endured them.
