Chi-Town Urchin: 1941
April 1941. "Street urchin, Black Belt, Chicago." Also seen here. 35mm negative by Edwin Rosskam for the Farm Security Administration. View full size.
Wow!
I can understand why you would want to cry, but this is the first picture that brought an immediate smile to my face. I would love to scoop up this little doll and snuggle him. He seems to be a survivor. I am sure he had a prosperous life...well, I hope he did.
Sad
This kid makes me wanna cry. And I'm a guy.

Very touching
Looking at his eyes I just felt a chill, and it made me want to cry. I never have that kind of reaction. What an amazing photo.
