In the past many people would express their feelings and events by paintings. During the 1950's, I seam to find that most things were being expressed through photographs since that could be taken on scene. I did not read Having Our Say, closely. So this might be a little off, but this is one picture I was able to find.
I believe this is a political picture that is about the Jim Crows laws. I did pick up that one major event that changed the Delani sisters' lives was the passing of the Jim Crow laws. I believe this picture shows that this man is now free, but he is forced to live in rags and shambles of fancy clothes. In the background you can see a fancy and wealthy couple walking a lot better off then this man. I believe it kind of shows how things really wasn't too good even after being set free.
