Photo Similarities Between the Times of the Great Depression & Great Recession

Dust Storm Over China - 21st Century

 

Dorothea Lange, Dust Storm, Great Depression

 

Spent some time today looking at National Archive photos and Wikimedia Commons pics and found these parallel pics.

 

Dorothea Lange’s photos of the Dust Bowl, Migrants in California, and the general sadness and despair caused by land abuse and economic abuse seem oddly contemporary.

Buy Me a Coffee

Like what I write? Found useful info here. Buy me a cup of coffee (organic, fair trade) to say thank you!





About Me

I have written and published many blogs over the last 15 years on the topics of Later Born Baby Boomers, Peace & Justice Activism, Virtual Worlds, Gene Stratton-Porter, and Medical Child Abuse. I love research, information and the quest for knowledge. I'm an anthropologist by training, and a freelance content creator by vocation. I love things that make sense, could be, and might be so I enjoy good speculative fiction along the lines of Cory Doctorow and TV shows like Dr. Who and Orphan Black.
