Summary

Description
日本語: 「ヴィクスバーグではちょうど綿の収穫期だった。黒人労働者が荷車のような粗末なトラックで運ばれて行くのに出会った。その光景に、南北戦争以前のアメリカの姿を見る思いがした。畑では黒人たちが長く白い袋をひきずりながら綿摘みをしていた。その姿が尺取り虫の動いているように感じられ、私は撮影に熱中していた。 すると突然、農場主のおばあさんが『お前は農場主が労働者を搾取しているという写真をとって、モスクワへ送るんだろう』とがなりたれられた。当時のアメリカは、コミュニズムに対して非常に神経質になっていた。コミュニズムを悪とする考えが、あの広いアメリカの隅々まで浸透していたのだった」 『三木淳写真集　LIFEのカメラ・アイ』 小学館、1989年より。
English: "It was just the cotton harvest season in Vixberg. I met a black worker being carried by a poor truck like a cart. The sight made me think of America before the Civil War. In the field, black people were long dragging a white bag and picking cotton. I felt that the scale insects were moving, and I was absorbed in shooting. Suddenly, the farmer's grandmother said, "You will take a picture of the farmer exploiting the workers and send it to Moscow." America at that time was very nervous about communism. The idea of making communism evil had permeated every corner of America. "" Jun Miki Photobook LIFE's Camera Eye "Shogakukan, 1989.
