Black spaces of the Great Depression: scenes of African American life in the 1930s – in pictures

In a new exhibition, the private homes and public gathering spaces of Black southerners are seen in a range of photos that provide a corrective. Images from photographers including Dorothea Lange, Russell Lee, Marion Post Wolcott and Walker Evans, are part of a project commissioned in 1935 but until now, only a narrow selection have been available.
