Hi. I was wondering why D was a better answer than B. I assumed that photography/journalism from the time period did not reveal instances of individual human suffering since the passage says "Through his depiction of the unemployed in New York's Harlem he was able to move beyond the usual "protest painting" of the period to reveal instances of individual human suffering."

delialsat02,

You're looking in the wrong place for the information to answer the question. The part you cite is about painting, not journalistic and photographic records at all. There is an explicit mention of the latter in the final paragraph, and there is says that they engaged in "simplifications." So, those records were too simplified. We therefore want an answer that's the opposite of that, which answer choice (D) is.
