digging around with this pic and found out it was taken in 1972

From goog translate

William Gedney does not differentiate the word from the photograph. If one does not accompany the other, neither of them makes sense, think.

The child with impossible arms - again: exhausted - with a downcast look, shirtless … They have the shamelessness of maintaining that God created the same kind of world for every living creature.

They are not pictures of the Great Depression, but 1972. After the Urals? No, in Kentucky, the heart of the most powerful country in the world at that time.

The photographer is a quiet, elegant young man, of those people who scarcely leave a mark when they walk, of those who do not shout, of those who do not push, of those who are never back … He has few friends and is dedicated to walking, the best of the work in this land where you live looking at the ground
