Source catalog description

This description refers to material held by Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture. Visual details below describe the original material.

A digital aerial photograph of remnant rice fields along a section of Waccamaw River and the Great Pee Dee River. The Waccamaw can be seen flowing along the image’s bottom edge. Small clusters of trees protrude out of the water, which looks blueish black against the adjacent fields. The grass in the field appear green, yellow, and brown and a few remnant canals can be seen flowing through it. The Great Pee Dee River can be seen at the top of the image. Its water appears deep blue in the sunlight, in contrast to the nearby Waccamaw, which looks darker. Wooden fences visibly protrude out of the water where some of the canals connect to the main river channels.
