An image taken by Robert Frank, a Swiss Photographer who created a book called The Americans (1958) over 1955-1956. He travelled across the country to taking photographs to reflect American society at the time.

This image in particular shows racial segregation in the south, and how normalised it was in society.

His images are in black and white, giving them a timeless feel- which can now be interpreted by modern audiences as showing how racism is still an important issue in society. The windows of the trolley look to be forming prison bars separating the passengers and showing how discrimination can divide society.
