A Farm Family

A Farm Family | Print | Wisconsin Historical Society
A Southern African American family posing outdoors in front of their house. The children are in an oxcart in the foreground, and the parents are behind them, each holding a child in their arms. Caption reads: "The negro farmer of the south differs vastly from the white farmer of the north. 'There negro tillers of the soil are renters by the year, croppers by the crop. They are not home makers. They have no attachment for the soil, no patriotic pride, nothing that gives permanence to their holdings.'"
