The Great Depression Migrant Farm Workers Andkschnapp
The document discusses the Great Depression and migrant farm workers in the 1930s. It summarizes how drought and economic hardship led many to leave the Midwest for work in California agriculture. Migrant workers followed the harvests and lived in poor conditions, though they were essential to the farm system. John Steinbeck captured their struggles in his novel Of Mice and Men.

Dust in the Wind: Dorothea Lange in the Imperial ValleyChris Austin
During the 1930s, severe drought and farming practices caused massive dust storms in the Midwest that destroyed farmland. Hundreds of thousands of people were displaced and migrated west to California seeking work. When they arrived, conditions were poor as there was little work and low wages in agriculture. Photographer Dorothea Lange documented the "human erosion" of these Dust Bowl refugees through images of their difficult lives living in migrant labor camps in California's Imperial Valley that lacked basic facilities. Though the region seemed like an ideal destination, the reality of industrialized agriculture differed greatly from the small family farms the migrants were accustomed to.

The document summarizes the rise of the Populist movement in the late 19th century United States as farmers organized in response to economic hardship. It describes the formation of the Farmers' Alliance in response to declining prices, rising transportation costs, and debt. Populist leaders like Watson, Polk, and Lease advocated for farmers' rights and cooperative economics. In 1892, the People's Party was formed to promote agricultural reform through politics. However, the party had limited success in the 1892 election and faded as the Democrats appealed to white supremacy in the South. Overall, the Populist movement represented significant farmer protest against economic conditions of the time.
- During the Industrial Revolution, cities grew rapidly as people moved from rural areas to factories. This increased demand for labor and drew many European immigrants to American cities.
- Immigrants faced difficult living conditions in overcrowded tenement housing with limited amenities. They also experienced discrimination in the workplace from native workers.
- As city populations boomed, local governments struggled to provide necessary services. Political bosses filled this void by offering jobs, services and favors in exchange for votes, gaining control of municipal governments. While sometimes improving infrastructure, machine politics also led to corruption.
The document discusses the issues of poverty globally and in the United States. It notes that over 1 billion people live on less than $1 per day and 2.7 billion live on less than $2 per day. In the US, the poverty rate in 2006 was 12.3% representing 36.5 million people. While revolution is one way to address poverty, the document advocates for more constructive solutions like donating time and resources to local shelters, reducing food waste, and engaging in politics.
The document summarizes Progressive Era reforms around the turn of the 20th century. Progressives sought to address problems from industrialization like poor working conditions exposed by photographers like Lewis Hine and authors like Upton Sinclair. Urban immigrants lived in overcrowded tenements as shown by Jacob Riis. Settlement houses like Jane Addams' Hull House helped immigrants assimilate. Progressives also pushed for political reforms to curb monopolies and corruption exposed by "muckrakers," aiming to fix social injustices.

The great-depression-migrant-farm-workers-andkschnapp
The document discusses the Great Depression and migrant farm workers in the 1930s. It summarizes how drought and economic problems led many to leave the Midwest for work in California agriculture. However, migrant farm workers faced low pay, poor conditions, and lack of job security or unions. John Steinbeck captured their struggles in his novel Of Mice and Men, published in 1938, which remains widely read today despite some criticism.
The document discusses the Great Depression and FDR's New Deal programs. It summarizes that after the stock market crash in 1929, 25% of Americans were unemployed. FDR launched two waves of New Deal programs - the First New Deal aimed to fix the economy without radical changes, while the Second New Deal focused on economic security and redistributing income. New Deal programs included the WPA, Social Security, and Wagner Act supporting unions. However, the New Deal was limited and some groups faced continued inequality.
The document discusses the large scale migration of African Americans out of the rural South between 1900-1970, known as the Great Migration. It describes the push factors like poor economic opportunities, Jim Crow laws and lynchings in the South that encouraged migration, as well as the pull of jobs in Northern cities. Over 6 million African Americans left the South during this period, radically transforming the demographics of both the South and Northern cities.
During the antebellum period between 1812-1860, sectionalism developed between the North and South as their ways of life diverged. The South's economy was based on cotton and slavery, while the North's relied on manufacturing. Issues like the tariff and the expansion of slavery divided the regions. Mississippi became the heart of the cotton kingdom due to innovations like the cotton gin. By 1860, slavery was an entrenched institution in Mississippi, defended on economic, religious, and racial grounds. When Lincoln was elected as an anti-slavery candidate, Mississippi seceded, believing states had the right to leave the Union.
The document provides a summary of Professor Grace Chee's lecture on the consolidation of slavery in the South between 1790-1850. It discusses how slavery expanded and became entrenched, driven by the growth of cotton and the invention of the cotton gin. The internal slave trade transported over 800,000 slaves from the Upper South to the Deep South. Slaves resisted through escape, rebellion, and embracing religion. The pro-slavery movement argued it was a positive good. Strict laws were passed to control free blacks and suppress abolitionists. Slavery shaped Southern society, economics, and gender roles.
The document summarizes developments in the post-Civil War South, West, and urban areas of America between 1860-1910. It discusses the rise of sharecropping and tenant farming in the South, expansion of the railroads, and continued economic dominance of cotton. In the West, it outlines the migration of settlers including African Americans, conflicts with Native Americans, the cattle industry, rise of farming, and the closing of the frontier by 1890. It also summarizes the massive growth of U.S. cities, challenges of urbanization, the influx of immigrants, growth of popular culture such as newspapers and sports, spread of public education and social philosophies like Social Darwinism during this time period.
The document summarizes several social reforms that emerged during the Second Great Awakening period from 1825 to 1850. It discusses the rise of evangelical Protestantism and expansion of religious revivals. It also outlines the growth of temperance, educational, penal, women's rights, and abolitionist reform movements. Many of these reforms aimed to apply Christian ideals of equality and justice more broadly in society, such as advocating for the end of slavery and increased rights for women.
This document provides a summary of post-World War 2 economic and social developments in the United States. It describes the rapid economic growth fueled by increased government and military spending as well as booming industries like automobiles and real estate. It also discusses the rise of suburbs and consumer culture, breakthroughs in medicine and technology, the civil rights movement, and challenges to conformist 1950s culture from groups like the Beats.
The document discusses the rapid urbanization and growth of American cities in the late 19th century. It describes how the urban population tripled between 1870 and 1900, with 4 out of 10 Americans living in cities by 1900. The growth of large cities like New York and Chicago was spectacular during this period. This urban growth brought both opportunities and problems, including overcrowded tenement housing, lack of infrastructure, and public health issues.
By the late 19th century, many Americans were moving to cities drawn by new industrial jobs. Rapid urbanization led to overcrowded living conditions, inadequate infrastructure, and public health issues. Between 1870 and 1890, the US population doubled and the population of cities tripled. By 1900, 40% of Americans lived in cities of over 2500 people, with New York, Philadelphia, and Chicago each surpassing 1 million residents. Immigrants, especially those from southern and eastern Europe, integrated less easily than earlier groups and faced nativist backlash. Reformers worked to address urban problems and help immigrants through settlement houses, social programs, and advocacy for workers' rights.
Key Concept 7.2 discusses changes in communications, technology, and migration patterns in the early 20th century United States. New technologies like radio and movies helped spread popular culture and awareness of regional cultures. The Harlem Renaissance celebrated African American arts and culture. Immigration reached its peak before WWI but faced increasing restrictions in the 1920s due to nativism. The Great Migration saw many African Americans leave the South for opportunities in Northern cities. Internal migration to urban centers also increased during this period due to wars and economic factors like the Dust Bowl.

consider the ending of poverty a worthwhile goal. Euro-Americans increasingly wanted the poor to just go
away. According to U.S. Senator Barry Goldwater, "The fact is that most people who have no skill have no edu-
cation for the same reason-low intelligence or low ambition:'48
Bureaucratic conflict also weakened the War on Poverty. The Department of Labor refused to cooperate
with OEO; social workers perceived it as a threat to the welfare bureaucracy and their hegemony among the
poor. Local politicians claimed that OEO programs "fostered class struggle." Meanwhile, as government officials
and others quickly gained control of the programs, the participation of the poor declined. By 1966, President
Johnson began dismantling the OEO, with Head Start going to Health, Education, and Welfare, and the Job
Corps, to the Department of Labor. He then substituted the "Model Cities" program for OEO. Johnson, faced
with opposition within his own party over the war in Vietnam, announced that he would not seek reelection.
The assassination of Robert Kennedy during the California primary also dealt a blow to Mexican American
hope. The election of Richard Nixon in 1968 put the proverbial final nail in the coffin.
Impart of the War on Poverty
The impact of the War on Poverty on Chicanos was huge. A study of 60 OEO advisory boards in East Los
Angeles-Boyle Heights-South Lincoln Heights, for instance-showed that 1,520 individuals, 71 percent of
whom lived in these communities, served on the boards; two-thirds were women. Many Chic;ano activists of
the 1960s developed a sense of political consciousness as a result of poverty programs, which advertised the
demands and grievances of the poor and created an ideology that legitimized protest. Many minorities came to
learn that they had the right to work in government and to petition it. Legal aid programs and Head Start, a
public preschool system, also proved invaluable to the poor. The number of poor fell dramatically between
1965 and 1970 as Social Security, health, and welfare payments more than doubled. When the federal govern-
ment cut the last of the War on Poverty programs in the 1980s, poverty escalated.49
MAGNETIZATION OF THE BORDER <t--VJ -\\ e....'(' -e_
A population boom in Mexico tossed millions into Mexico's labor pool, thus intensifying the push factors. In
1950, Mexico had a population of 25.8 million; it jumped to 34.9 million 10 years later and was rushing toward
50 million by the end of the 1960s. Driving this increase was the fertility rate of Mexican women, which
increased from an average of 1.75 percent in 1922-1939 to 2.25 percent in 1939-1946 and to 6.9 percent in
the late 1950s. Mexico had the fastest-growing gross national product (GNP) in Latin America, but it did not
offset this increase in population.
The termination of the bracero (guest worker) program in 1964 worsened Mexico's econ.
The document summarizes key events and developments in the post-Civil War South between 1877-1900. It discusses the economic growth of industries like steel, textiles and railroads that characterized the New South. However, the South remained economically dependent on the North. It also examines the rise of southern populism in response to economic hardship among farmers and the growth of segregation and disfranchisement that disenfranchised African Americans and reinforced white supremacy.
The document is a presentation about FDR and the New Deal. It provides background information on economic conditions before the New Deal, FDR's first inaugural address, the three R's of the New Deal, programs from the first hundred days like the alphabet agencies, the brain trust, and criticisms of FDR from figures like Huey Long, Father Coughlin, and Francis Townsend. It concludes with images from New Deal programs and the election of 1936.
The document summarizes the Progressive Era in the United States from 1890 to 1920. It describes the roots of progressivism in rapid industrialization, immigration, and rejection of social Darwinism. Progressives were mainly middle and upper-class citizens who believed the government could enact reforms to address problems and continue social advancement. Their goals included trust-busting, increasing democracy, labor reforms, consumer protections, and social justice issues like civil rights and women's rights. Muckrakers like Upton Sinclair exposed issues through investigative journalism. Under Teddy Roosevelt, the federal government took a more active role in regulating industry and passing reforms like the Meat Inspection and Pure Food and Drug Acts.
The document summarizes life in America in 1900 compared to 2008, highlighting changes such as population growth, average age, wages, and technology. It discusses trends like increasing divorces, decreasing farms, and rising costs of basic goods. Americans in 1900 lived with fewer modern conveniences but earned comparable incomes to Europeans due to lower taxes. The Progressive Era aimed to reform politics, business, and social issues through government intervention.
1. The document provides an overview of resources at the Tennessee State Library & Archives related to African American history and civil rights. It summarizes key events like the triangular slave trade and convict leasing system.
2. The TSLA contains thousands of photographs, drawings, and other primary sources that help tell the story of civil rights in Tennessee, including images from the slave era to the Civil Rights movement.
3. The archives hold collections like the Merl Eppse papers that document cultural and educational life for African Americans in Tennessee.
The document discusses several reform movements in the antebellum United States from 1820 to the 1850s, including the rise of evangelical Christianity and the Second Great Awakening which sparked social reforms around temperance, abolitionism, education, asylums, and women's rights; it also examines the growth of the abolition movement led by figures like William Lloyd Garrison and Frederick Douglass and the emergence of the women's rights movement at the 1848 Seneca Falls Convention.
The 1950s saw strong economic growth in the United States fueled by post-war prosperity and government programs. The growing middle class drove demand for consumer goods like cars and homes, fueling suburban expansion. New technologies like air conditioning and the interstate highway system encouraged movement to the Sunbelt. The postwar baby boom increased the population to over 165 million by 1955. Youth culture also emerged strongly as teenagers gained independence and distinct interests in music and media.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Editor's Notes
Listen to the memphis mini gitis blues…
"Health disparities," as an identified field of federally-sponsored public health research, can be dated back only to
January 1984. n9 That is [*21] when President Ronald Reagan's Secretary of Human Services, Margaret Heckler, in
her annual report card on the health status of Americans, called attention to what she later called "a continuing disparity
in the burden of death and illness experienced by blacks and other minority Americans as compared with our nation's
population as whole." n10
But it is important to note that long before Heckler's call to arms, researchers and health officials were documenting
and striving to address racial gaps in health access and health outcomes. In his 1906 study, The [*22] Health and
Physique of the Negro American, sociologist W.E.B. Du Bois used federal census reports and vital statistics, as well as
life insurance data, to identify the disparities in health status between black and white Americans, even if he did not use
the word "disparities." n16 Now unlike the white statistician Frederick Hoffman, who argued that these differences
resulted from the inherent genetic inferiority of African Americans (this was a widely-held assumption), Du Bois
implicated environmental causes. n17 By environmental causes, I mean the lack of sanitation in segregated
neighbor-hoods where black Americans were forced to live, along with the lack of educational and economic
opportunity faced by African Americans, as the fundamental reasons for this disparity.
One example of such a neirhborhood was overtown in Miami, then, known by the disparaging term colored town. This was one of the only places where african americans were allowed to live as most of the town was reserved for white tourists and black people who were working there had to leave by sundown. Colored town had unpaved streets and outdoor plumbing.
Even though the city was only established in 1896, this part of town was crowded in 1920:
social workers who surveyed the area in 1920 recorded one hundred families living on a single block.– similar to the Lung Block in New York city 15 years earlier. So African Americans migrating to cities in the 1910s-1940s faced similar kinds of crowded unsanitary conditions that Southern and Eastern European immigrants had faced in the 1890s-1910s – plus strict regimes of racial segregation in which they were shut out from many city services and had to go to black hospitals, black schools, use black only ambulances—all of which received less money than the white schools, hospitals, ambulance servics..
In Colored town, for example, The Miami city government did not even provide trash or other sanitation services to the area. A continual
influx of workers to build and staff the new hotels, homes, and restaurants
that were opening for wealthy white tourists, combined with tightening restrictions on where black residents
could live, only exacerbated the situation.
And memphis, which we read about in Wailoo’s book Dying in the City of the Blues, had similar conditions.
Now Du Bois and others fought against these health disparities by actively advocating for the elimination of the underlying limits on educational and
economic opportunities that he believed led to these disparities. He was a co founder of the NAACP and as editor of its magazine The Crisis advocated and agitated for civil rights for African Americans. He was the chief proponent of the idea of the “New Negro”- that black Americans were socially equal to white americans and should strive for “the rights which the world accords to men” and not as Booker T. Washington urged, work for personal uplift while accommodating segregation.
So from the beginning of the 20th century civil rights and health conditions were seen as interconnected: Some activists believed that you could not address black health without addressing the injustice of segregation, and that once people had equal rights the health disparities would lessen or even disappear. So you could see this as an antecedent to the social determinants of health theory.
Now it wasn’t just urban areas where segregation and racism undergirded health disparities. It was in fact mainly in the rural areas.
Most African Americans in the area were tenant farmers in the oppressive sharecropping system, which required them to rent
their land, food, and supplies, often at high rates of interest charged by the planters who owned the land, and then pay
back this with a portion of their crops. This system caused most sharecroppers, black and white, to slip into a cycle of
indebtedness from which they could not escape except by fleeing the area.
And it also meant people did not even have the space to grow their own vegetables – because all land had to be devoted to the cash crop-
Or the money to buy shoes for their children or screens for their cabins.
And people in the South suffered from a variety of diseases. Each could have been called the scourge of the south..
But that title went to Pellagra. a disease which causes skin rashes, diarrhea, dementia, and death, was endemic among the poor black and white Southerners, with rates higher among African Americans due to their greater rates of poverty. And in 1914 public health service scientists proved that it was caused by malnutrition- a niacin deficiency- due to the poor diets of sharecroppers and mill workers.
The other, scourges of the South were malaria –
Malaria was endemic in the south as you see by this 1870 map –and through the midwest even.. the anopheles mosquito bit people and people – especially those along river vallesy-- lived with the parasites in their bodies, giving them fever, chills, fatigue, sometimes causing fatal illness.
And while by the early 20th century people in the midwest and urban areas like washington dc had enough money to buy screens for their houses so they wouldn’t get bitten while sleeping. And this caused a reduction in malaria. This was not true in areas of the south where people still lived in unscreened cabins and flood regions.
And then there was hookworm. Where children went barefoot and the hookworm parasite larvae wriggled into their bodies through open cuts. And multiplied and then spread to others through feces. It invades the lungs and small intestines, and causes nausea, fatigue, anemis, abdominal pain and other symptoms.
And on top of this there were fewer well trained doctors in the South than in the north as well as well trained midwives- And there was a very high infant mortality rate.
Malaria map, 1870, US, from http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/george-washingtons-medical-chart/
And this infant mortality rate really did not come to the forefront until birth registration started occurring in the South. And there were government funds beginning in the 1920s for tracking infant mortality and maternal mortality in the south
you can see here that even in 1921 there were only certain areas where births were registered..all of the white states do not have statewide birth registration. And in 1921 the maternalists succeeded in really expanding the mission of child saving
Through the enactment of the maternity and infancy care act
Which gave grants to states for..health programs, widows pensons..
And really tried to track infant mortality rates in the south and rural areas. And they discovered how high they were in the south. You see these states that are completely colored in are virginia maryland north carolina and south carolina. And this is not because Alabama Georgia and Florida are sowonderful – it is because there is no data on them! But Maryland is worse than Mississippi – which might have been because Mississippi had limiteddata collection.
But in the South they collect data on infant mortality by race and discover that black infant mortality rates are nearly twice as those of white infants.
And at this time the majority of African Americans lived in the South.

Now in addition to the federal government’s funding of expanded registration and
statistical tracking of infant and maternal mortality,
another major phenomenon put a spotlight on health disparities in the South.
This was the 1927 Mississippi flood, which By early April had turned the Delta region of Arkansas,
Louisiana, and Mississippi into "a vast sheet of water . . . about 1,050
miles long and in some places, over 50 miles in width." according to a National Geographic reporter.
The flood drowned hundreds of people while destroying the
region's crops and livestock.
Local white planters, the owners of plantations who rented the land to the sharecroppers
, enlisted black men, often by force and
sometimes at gunpoint, to work long shifts sand-bagging the levees and building out the levees and, as a result,
exposing them to [a] higher risk of drowning when the flood overtopped the levees.
And if they didn’t drown, of course they were subject to malaria from standing water and cuts and scrapes as you see some men do not have shoes.
And also, many sharecroppers lived in flimsy cabins along the rich soil
of the flood plain, while planters and white merchants who provided services to the plantation economy lived in solid,
multiple-story homes on high ground.
So during the flood, these more affluent whites could simply decamp to the
second story or attic of their home until the flood receded from their first floor. Most black sharecroppers had nowhere
to go except for the refugee camps established by the American Red Cross.
And the camps were racially segregated with Black residents being housed along levees in crowded camps – again a malarial area – so the white residents of these areas could force them to work- and an area also subject to re-flooding.
As one report noted, the levy tops were sites of misery and disease, where "[m]ud, rain, cold, hunger, exposure
[and] hopelessness led to fatal results."
The health officer in Greenville had given typhoid inoculations "earlier in the week in his office to whites only." according to an article in the Chicago Defender, the nation’s leading African American newspaper.
Typhoid inoculations were [considered] a key protective measure against infections from this deadly water-born
bacillus, this microbe that tends to flourish in standing pools of water that accompany floods and hurricanes.
"Members of our race are still suffering from measles, mumps, and typhoid.
'They received very little treatment, and those who die are cut open, filled with sand, and then tossed into the
Mississippi River,' the correspondent wrote."
A correspondent from the Chicago Defender who visited the black camps wrote,
that "epidemics of measles, whooping cough, mumps, scarlet fever, and chicken pox were raging in these camps."
The African American camps were also patrolled by white National Guardsmen who were instructed not to let the
residents leave. The local planters feared with good reason that many of the sharecroppers, provided with
free transportation by government and Red Cross boats, would decide to leave the area for the industrial North where
Race relations and employment conditions were somewhat better.
And in fact the flood drew national attention to the awful health and economic conditions faced by African Americans and poor whites in the South.
And the Red Cross together with the Rockefeller Foundation and other philanthropies began work to improve public health in the flood-affected regions.
Economic conditions are better in cities.
More access to hospitals, health care.But segregated in many cities.
Housing is crowded, segregated by custom or law.
TB, which has dropped tremendously among whites, remains much higher among black and puerto rican migrants to cities.
People migrate from an unhealthy rural South where they have been subject to numerous health threats, into crowded housing conditions in the cold north.
In the painting on the right, Alice Neel portrays Carlos Negrón the brother of her lover, who had moved to Spanish Harlem from Puerto rico two years before and had contracted tuberculosis in this overcrowded migrant neighborhood. Here he is pictured after undergoing “thoracoplasty, a procedure to collapse and “rest” the tuberculosis-infected lung by removing ribs.” In his weakness and woundedness, he draws in the viewer’s empathy. Neel makes Tb, a disease then disappearing into the background amidst growing focus on chronic disease, once again visible, and draws attention to the fact that it is continuing to afflict young men of color. After the war, Tb rates will plummet drastically, as antibiotics to cure it become available. But the crowded neighborhoods of Southern African American and Puerto Rican migrants will continue to bear a disparate burden of the disease well into the 1960s.

Picture on right: http://nmwa.org/works/tb-harlem From the National Museum for Women in the Arts “In this painting, Neel portrayed Carlos Negrón, the brother of the artist’s then-lover, José Santiago. Negrón, 24 years old here, had moved to New York’s Spanish Harlem from his native Puerto Rico just two years earlier. Tuberculosis spreads easily in overcrowded urban neighborhoods, and in 1940 the available treatments were drastic. The bandage on Negrón’s chest covers the wound from his thoracoplasty, a procedure to collapse and “rest” the tuberculosis-infected lung by removing ribs.
Although it encourages empathy, Neel’s painting is not sentimental. While retaining Negrón’s likeness, Neel distorted and elongate his neck and arms. She used heavy, dark lines to emphasize and flatten his silhouette. The lines around his wound draw attention to the sunken misshapenness of his left side. Negrón’s face expresses dignity in suffering while his pose and the gesture of his right hand recall traditional images of the martyred Christ.
