EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures a poignant moment in history, depicting a family picking cotton near McKinney, Texas in 1913. The image, taken by Lewis Wickes Hine, showcases the harsh realities of child labor and the struggles faced by families during this time. Hine was an investigative photographer for the National Child Labor Committee, dedicated to exposing the exploitation of children across various industries. From 1908 to 1912, he documented working conditions with a particular focus on children's plight. In this photograph, we witness a young boy amidst his family members as they toil away in the cotton field. Their faces reveal exhaustion and hardship as they work tirelessly under the scorching sun. This image serves as a stark reminder of the poverty that plagued many American families during this era. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its depiction of child labor but also in its portrayal of agriculture and farming practices at that time. It offers us a glimpse into an industry that heavily relied on manual labor for survival. As we reflect upon this historical moment frozen in time, let us remember those who endured such challenging circumstances. May it serve as a reminder to appreciate how far we have come while acknowledging the ongoing fight against exploitation and inequality worldwide.
