Daughter of a migrant

Daughter of a migrant berry picker eating dinner in Hammond, Louisiana, 1939. She leans over her bowl as the remnants of a simple meal such as beans, biscuits, and porridge sit scattered before her. A metal bucket of water beside her, used for drinking, reflects the rough, impoverished living conditions faced by many migrant families.
