ALABAMA - FAMILY, 1936. A Glimpse into the Lives of Floyd Burroughs and the Tingle Children
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph captures a poignant moment in the summer of 1936, showcasing the resilience and strength of an Alabama family during one of America's darkest times - The Great Depression. In this snapshot taken by renowned photographer Walker Evans, we see Floyd Burroughs, a hardworking cotton sharecropper, standing proudly alongside the Tingle children on their porch in Hale County. The image tells a story of struggle and determination as these individuals navigate through poverty-stricken circumstances. Despite their hardships, there is an undeniable sense of unity within this family unit. The young boy donning overalls stands tall beside his sister while holding onto their beloved pet dog. Floyd Burroughs himself exudes both weariness from toiling in the fields but also a quiet resolve that comes with providing for his loved ones. His cigarette serves as a brief respite from life's challenges. Evans' masterful composition transports us back to an era where every detail mattered – from the weathered wooden house to the worn-out clothes they wear. This photograph not only documents history but also serves as a testament to human perseverance amidst adversity. As we gaze upon this powerful image captured nearly nine decades ago, let us remember those who endured unimaginable hardship during The Great Depression and honor their unwavering spirit that continues to inspire generations today.
