EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful photograph captures the resilience and determination of a Cow Hollow farmer in Malheur County, Oregon during the challenging times of the Great Depression. The image, taken by renowned photographer Dorothea Lange in 1939, showcases Mr. and Mrs. Cates, who had migrated from Oklahoma to start anew. The couple is depicted signing a legal document with an "X" symbolizing their illiteracy but also highlighting their unwavering commitment to securing a better future for themselves. This poignant moment represents not only their struggle but also the support they received from the Farm Security Administration (FSA), as they were able to obtain an FSA loan that would help them establish their new place. Lange's lens captures every detail - from the weathered faces of Mr. and Mrs. Cates to the worn-out surroundings that reflect years of hardship caused by drought and economic challenges. Despite these adversities, this photograph radiates hope as it immortalizes a pivotal moment in American history when individuals like Mr. and Mrs. Cates sought assistance through government programs to rebuild their lives. Through her work, Lange sheds light on both personal stories and broader societal issues such as displacement, migration, poverty, literacy barriers, and financial struggles faced by farmers during this era. This remarkable print serves as a testament to human strength amidst adversity while reminding us of our collective responsibility towards supporting those facing hardships within our communities.
