EDITORS COMMENTS
Crossing the International Bridge: A Symbol of Hope and Struggle during the Great Depression This evocative photograph, taken by renowned American photographer Dorothea Lange in 1937, captures the essence of the economic and social turmoil of the Great Depression era. The image portrays a group of people, mostly women and children, crossing the international bridge that connects Juarez, Mexico, and El Paso, Texas. The bridge serves as a border post and a checkpoint, symbolizing the complexities of immigration and the economic divide between two countries. The women in the photograph are dressed in simple, worn clothing, reflecting the hardships of the time. One woman wears a long, dark dress with a shawl draped over her shoulders, while another dons a light-colored frock. The men in the background are seen wearing work clothes and hats, likely returning from a day of labor. The automobiles in the foreground, including a model from AC Cars Ltd., represent the few who were still able to afford them during the economic recession. The photograph was taken as part of Dorothea Lange's work with the Farm Security Administration (FSA) and later the Office of War Information (OWI). Her images, including this one, provided a poignant and powerful record of the human condition during the Great Depression and the challenges faced by those on the American and Mexican frontiers. The photograph serves as a reminder of the resilience and determination of people during times of hardship and the enduring nature of the border between the United States and Mexico.
