Hoe culture in the South. Poor white, North Carolina

#South #NorthCarolina

In the image, a young boy is standing in an open field. He appears to be leaning on his hoe, which rests in the soil next to him. The boy's attire includes overalls and a straw hat, suggesting he might be engaged in agricultural work. His posture and the setting give the impression of a scene from a rural or farming community, possibly during the day given the lighting conditions. The photograph has an aged appearance, indicated by its faded colors and grainy texture, which suggests it could be an older image.
