Read the quotation by Dorothea Lange about the photo “Migrant Mother” from Years of Dust. I saw and approached the hungry and desperate mother, as if drawn by a magnet. I do not remember how I explained my presence or my camera to her, but I do remember she asked me no questions. . . . I did not ask her name or history. She told me her age, that she was thirty-two. She said that they had been living on frozen vegetables from the surrounding fields, and birds that the children had killed. She had just sold the tires from her car to buy food. There she sat in that lean-to tent with her children huddled around her, and seemed to know that my pictures might help her, and so she helped me. There was a sort of equality about it. Now, read an excerpt about the photo from Years of Dust. Lange, the children recalled, had promised not to publish the photo, but had done exactly that. It appeared on March 10, 1936, in the San Francisco News, above First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt's weekly "My Day" column. Thompson saw the picture and felt betrayed. For the rest of her life, she resented Lange's use of her image for publicity. Thompson was an active woman, who had helped organize farmworkers' unions. "She was a very strong woman," said daughter Katherine, seen in the photo by her mother's right shoulder. "She was a leader. I think that's one of the reasons she resented the photo—because it didn't show her in that light." How do these two accounts differ? Lange describes a situation that is more desperate than the true circumstances that Thompson’s daughter explains. Thompson’s daughter describes a situation that is more desperate than the true circumstances that Lange explains. Lange describes a situation that is more lighthearted than the true circumstances that Thompson’s daughter explains. Thompson’s daughter describes a situation that is more lighthearted than the true circumstances that Lange explains
