The Revolutionary Symbolism of Angelo Herndon
This article examines the photographic representation of Angelo Herndon, a Black Communist who was arrested in 1932 in Atlanta through seldom-used Georgian anti-insurrection legislation. Herndon (aged 19) endured many months in jail and faced 18-20 years on a chain gang for organizing an unemployment protest.

The Hands of Fortune
In 1931, Fortune published an article entitled ‘American Workingman’, a survey of labor in the midst of the worsening Depression, with an emblematic composite image of hands at work to indicate the manual character and the diverse jobs of industrial work. The picture conveys the polysemy of hands as a synecdoche of labor, and witnesses the prevalence of close-up depictions of hands at work in other Fortune features on specific industries, from wh…

The article proposes that it is an ‘averted lynching photograph’ that echoes images of actual lynch mob killings…
Documenting an ‘Age‐Long Struggle’
artists, and writers presided over by Alfred Stieglitz, he was unsuccessful in this application (a 'crime', wrote Clurman), but Clurman's tribute was nevertheless a perceptive characterization of Strand's photography towards the end of his 'transition years', as Steve Yates's terms them, when he spent the summers of 1930, 1931, and 1932 extensively photographing American Southwest from his temporary base in Taos, New Mexico
Tractor Factory Facts

By her own admission she was more interested in machines than politics in producing the images that appeared in her 1931 book Eyes on Russia and in several magazine publications. Aiming to provide ‘photographic records might have some historical value’ by detailing …
