EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful photograph captures the harsh reality of child labor in early 20th century America. Taken by Lewis Hine in August 1908, it depicts a young tipple boy working as a coal miner at the Turkey Knob Mine in Macdonald, West Virginia. The boy, whose identity remains unidentified, stands solemnly in his overalls, illuminated by a flashlight held tightly in his hand. The image portrays the innocence lost and the burden placed upon young shoulders during this era. The boy's tired expression reflects the physical and emotional toll of his work underground. Behind him, railroad tracks symbolize both progress and confinement as they lead deeper into the mine. Hine's photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the plight faced by countless children who were forced to toil under grueling conditions for meager wages. It sheds light on an exploitative system that prioritized profit over human rights. As we reflect on this turn-of-the-century portrait, let us remember those who fought tirelessly for workers' rights and improved conditions for future generations. This print is not just an artistic representation but also a historical document that exposes an uncomfortable truth about our past.
