EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a poignant moment in history - the opening meeting of the Mothers Club at Arvin Farm Security Administration Camp for migrants in California, 1938. The image showcases a group of resilient women, their faces filled with determination and hope despite the hardships they faced during the Great Depression. As they gather together inside an intimate interior space, these working-class mothers find solace and strength through hymns. Their voices harmonize as they sing from a shared songbook, creating an atmosphere of unity and support. Dorothea Lange's skilled lens immortalizes this powerful scene, highlighting both the individual struggles and collective resilience of these migrant workers. The presence of babies adds another layer to this evocative composition. These young children represent not only new life but also symbolize the future that these mothers are fighting for - one filled with opportunity and prosperity. In capturing this moment, Lange provides us with a glimpse into daily life during this tumultuous era marked by poverty and rural hardship. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring spirit of American women who found strength in community amidst adversity.
