Over at the Hillbuzz, I noticed an interesting pshop, featuring M'chelle doing her hula hooping whilst poor people were suffering. The pshop was based on a photo taken during the Great Depression. Michelle has had much fun during this Great Recession, hula hooping and vacationing and just making a splendid time of it for herself; this sort of exercise is a good way to point out her ample...deficiencies. Let 'em not eat cupcakes. 

So, here's my offering, based on the cover photograph of the 1972 book "Portrait of a Decade: Roy Stryker and the Development of Documentary Photography in the Thirties" by F. Jack Hurley.

I'm not sure who took this photo. Roy Stryker wasn't much of a photographer; he did run the FSA and managed a stable of photographers (including Dorothea Lange), collected and disseminated their works to various news outlets during his tenure in the '30's to 1943. That collection is now a valuable asset held in the Library of Congress.

Anyone knows who shot this pic, leave a comment.
