The Farm Security Administration (FSA) photographers were part of a government initiative during the Great Depression aimed at documenting the struggles of rural Americans and promoting New Deal programs. Notable photographers like Dorothea Lange, Walker Evans, and Russell Lee captured powerful images that highlighted the hardships faced by farmers and migrant workers. Their work not only provided visual evidence of the economic plight but also influenced public perception and policy regarding rural poverty. The photographs remain significant cultural artifacts, showcasing resilience and the human spirit during a challenging era.
