Children of the Depression in 1930s Georgetown

Great series of photos of poorer sections of Georgetown in the 1930s, taken by Carl Mydans for the Farm Security Administration.

Poor white hallway, Georgetown, D.C. Seldom do these people have even the desire to clear up rubbish, and the broom shown here seems to be out of place

The hallway above is looking a bit rough for sure. The label and commentary on the photo seems a bit unnecessary though, “seldom to these people have even the desire to clear up rubbish.”
