EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1910 by Lewis Hine, transports us back to a time when the innocence of childhood collided with the harsh realities of American life. In this image titled "MIGRANT WORKERS, 1910" we see five-year-old Helen and her stepsisters diligently hulling strawberries at Johnsons Hulling Station in Seaford, Delaware. The sepia-toned print captures a group of young girls seated outside an old wooden crate, their small hands swiftly removing strawberry stems for a mere two cents per quart. Their faces reveal both concentration and weariness beyond their tender years. Dressed in modest clothing and bonnets that shield them from the sun's rays, these children embody the struggles faced by migrant workers during this era. Lewis Hine's lens exposes not only the physical labor endured by these young girls but also sheds light on broader social issues such as child labor and rural poverty. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the challenges faced by working-class families striving to make ends meet during North America's early 20th century. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, it is impossible not to feel empathy for these resilient individuals who were forced into adulthood far too soon. This powerful image serves as a testament to the strength and determination exhibited by those living on society's margins while simultaneously urging us to reflect upon our own privilege and responsibility towards creating a more equitable world.
