This image is a reality since the US has accepted many immigrants. Overcrowding has become a huge problem, leading to other issues like disease. "The Steerage" reminds me vaguely of foreign immigration when the United States was doing everything in its power to keep Japanese and other foreigners out. It does feel sad since people are coming into the land to be at a forever home to run away from the hardships of life, but they are refused as they are not eligible to enter the country.

Ariella Azoulay's first main point of Photography was to reconstruct the history of Photography from technology to how it started. She wanted to make a point that Photography was not introduced using technology; there was only sometimes technology like today, so how was Photography formed? In her book The Civil Contract of Photography, Azoulay made this attempt; she talked about the early nineteenth century and how "Photography was still defined by the assumption that it can be accounted for as a domain apart, and hence situated in the early nineteenth century." (versobooks.com) She wrote about the natural history of Photography, and she says that it is about questioning the political formations of the "that certain sets of practices used as part of large-scale campaigns of imperial violence are separate from this violence and unrelated to it, to the extent that they can even account for it from the outside." (versobooks.com). She also points out that the New World's invention and Photography are correlated. She starts by saying that the origins of Photography probably started in the year 1492. She talks about the "enterprise of destroying the existing worlds of signs, activities, and social fabrics and replacing them with a "new world" of objects, classification, laws, technologies, and meanings." (versobooks.com) She also made the statement that Photography did not entirely her evidence, "it was built upon and benefitted from imperial looting, divisions, and rights that were operative in the colonization of the world in which photography was assigned the role of documenting, recording, or contemplating what-is-already-there." (versobooks.com). Finally, she talks about Dominique François Arago's speech in 1839, which was considered a fundamental moment in the discourse on Photography. She explains that the speech is frequently cited as an early attempt to define and advocate the new practice and technology of Photography. She finishes by summarizing what Arago's speech meant to us and ends the article by saying, "When photography emerged, it did not halt this process of plunder that made others and others' worlds available to the few, but rather accelerated it and provided further opportunities and modalities for pursuing it." (versobooks.com)  “Emphasized in Azoulay’s theory of photography is that photography must serve as a means of critique of existing power relations and rehabilitation of social injustice, but not in narrow ways predicated on the authority and artistry of the photographer or the ability of the spectator to “feel right” about his or her act of observation. If only it were as easy as Azoulay suggests in a chapter titled “Emergency Claims” that focuses specifically on photographs that explicitly generate horror through violent and even sensational subject matter.” ( acolytesofwar.com)

Galassi is persuaded that photography is "a legitimate child of the Western pictorial tradition." While other historians of photography have looked for its origins in the biographies of individual inventors, advances of science and technology, social and political transformations, or the mid-nineteenth century

The earliest widely available photographic process was made public in 1839 

by Louis Daguerre, creator of the Daguerreotype. 

The popularization of photography caused a great stir in the art world and led 

to significant changes in how art was perceived.
