1937 Vintage Photograph of Mississippi Sharecropper Couple

A sharecropper and his wife stand on their porch in rural Mississippi during the summer of 1937. They exemplify the struggles faced by African American families in the sharecropping system of the 1930s. Sharecropping often left families with limited resources, as seen by the absence of tools, livestock, and a garden in this scene.
