EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the harsh reality of child labor in the USA during 1910. The image showcases a young boy engaged in the backbreaking task of "hulling" strawberries at Johnsons Hulling Station in Seaford, Delaware. Taken by Lewis Hine (1874-1940), a renowned photographer and social reformer, this photograph serves as evidence of the exploitation faced by children during that era. The boy's weary expression and worn-out clothes speak volumes about his difficult circumstances. Despite his tender age, he is forced to work long hours under grueling conditions, contributing to an industry that thrives on cheap labor. This haunting image reminds us of the sacrifices made by countless children who were denied their right to education and a carefree childhood. Lewis Hine dedicated much of his career to exposing child labor practices through photography, aiming to raise awareness and advocate for change. His documentation played a significant role in shaping public opinion and ultimately led to reforms aimed at protecting vulnerable young workers. Today, this print stands as a historical artifact reminding us of our collective responsibility towards ensuring fair treatment and opportunities for all children. It serves as a poignant reminder that progress has been made but also highlights how far we still have to go in eradicating child labor worldwide.
