EDITORS COMMENTS
MIGRANT VILLAGE, c1941: A Glimpse into the Lives of Forgotten Workers This poignant photograph captures a snapshot of history from 1941 in Belle Glade, Florida. The image showcases a row of shacks that were once home to migrant workers and pickers during a time when America was grappling with the Great Depression. The dilapidated shacks stand as silent witnesses to the hardships endured by these forgotten individuals. Their exteriors bear the marks of wear and tear, with rusted roofs and weather-beaten walls reflecting years of neglect. These humble dwellings served as temporary shelters for those seeking employment opportunities in agriculture. However, this particular scene tells a story beyond mere poverty; it reveals an even more tragic reality. The Board of Health had condemned these shacks due to their unhygienic conditions, further highlighting the struggles faced by these marginalized communities. Photographed by Marion Post Wolcott, this powerful image is part of her documentation on behalf of the Farm Security Administration (FSA) during President Roosevelt's New Deal era. Through her lens, Wolcott aimed to shed light on social issues plaguing working-class Americans while advocating for change. As we gaze upon this haunting print today, let us remember those who lived within these walls - their dreams shattered by economic hardship but forever etched in our collective memory.
