Charlie Stanley carries his youngest son, Cole, as his older son, Cade, walks beside him, August 8, 2016, in Rosedale Mississippi. The boys often accompany Stanley as he works with his corn, rice, and soybean crops, but on this day, they were riding along as he cut grass. “The prices aren’t great, but the crops look good,” he said. “It’s a good way to raise your family and a good wholesome living.” Rosedale, which had a population of 1,873 at the 2010 Census, is located in the Mississippi Delta and was once known for its massive cotton plantations. Today, the area is still primarily agricultural, but the local economy has significantly declined. (Photo by Carmen K. Sisson/Cloudybright)
