FSA Photographs (Farm Security Administration Photographs)

FSA Photographs are a collection of images taken during the 1930s by photographers working for the Farm Security Administration. Their goal was to document the struggles of rural Americans during the Great Depression, showcasing issues like poverty, unemployment, and migration. These powerful photographs aimed to raise awareness and inspire government action to improve rural life. Today, they are valued historical records that reveal the social and economic challenges of that era, capturing both hardship and resilience with honesty and artistic sensitivity.
