EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Jack Delano in 1941, transports us to the picturesque island of St. Croix in the Virgin Islands. The image showcases an African American farmer, a borrower from the Farm Security Administration (FSA), diligently plowing his garden with one of the few plows available on the island. The scene exudes a sense of simplicity and resilience as we witness this hardworking man tending to his land. With an ass by his side, he navigates through the fertile fields near Frederiksted, surrounded by rolling hills that paint a stunning backdrop. Delano's lens captures not only a moment frozen in time but also tells a larger story about rural life and agriculture during this era. This photo serves as a powerful reminder of how individuals like this farmer relied on their own resourcefulness and determination to make ends meet. As we gaze at this image, it is impossible not to reflect upon the challenges faced by those living in poverty-stricken areas during that period. Yet amidst adversity, there is beauty found within these rustic landscapes and people who worked tirelessly to sustain themselves. Jack Delano's photograph stands as both historical documentation and artistry; it immortalizes an essential part of American heritage while shedding light on regionalism and agricultural practices specific to St. Croix.
