CHILD LABOR CARTOON, c1912. A Little Child Shall Feed Them
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This powerful print captures a poignant moment in American history during the early 20th century. Created by Art Young in 1912, this anti-child-labor cartoon serves as a scathing critique of the exploitation and greed prevalent within industrial capitalism. The image depicts an allegorical scene where a young child is burdened with the responsibility of feeding an overweight industrialist atop a ladder symbolizing social hierarchy. The smokestacks belching pollution behind them serve as a stark reminder of the environmental consequences resulting from profit-driven industries. Through this satirical artwork, Young sheds light on the harsh realities faced by working-class children who were forced into labor at an early age to support themselves and their families. It also highlights the growing labor movement's fight against such exploitative practices during America's progressive era. The artist skillfully employs symbolism to convey his message, emphasizing how capitalist greed feeds off innocent lives while perpetuating inequality and societal divisions. This thought-provoking cartoon serves as both a historical document and a call for change, urging viewers to reflect upon the consequences of unregulated capitalism and advocate for fair treatment of all individuals regardless of age or social status. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, let it remind us that progress should not come at the expense of our most vulnerable members - our children - but rather through compassion, justice, and equality for all.
