Migrant Mother ~ Dorothea Lange

As I listen to Monica Taylor sing "Young Mother" ... I cain't get this image out my mind ~ music is a powerful thing ~ best when it moves you in some way ~ makes you feel something. Listen to Monica's music ~ you will feel it.

Hey Brotherman, I saw the picture and the title and thought about "The Grapes of Wrath" That is the toughest book I've ever read.Them poor ole people should have headed to the coast and tried to be fisherman instead of traveling to California. Af all the classics I've read, this one should be required reading. Edder
