EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment in history - the housing for workers at the Rome Hosiery Mill in Georgia, 1913. The image, taken by Lewis Wickes Hine, showcases the harsh reality of working conditions and exploitation during that time. Hine was an investigative photographer for the National Child Labor Committee, dedicated to shedding light on the plight of children in various industries. From 1908 to 1912, he documented their struggles and brought attention to their exploitation. In this particular photograph, we see a dilapidated wooden shack that served as housing for these workers and their families. It stands as a stark reminder of poverty and destitution faced by many during this era. The image speaks volumes about the hardships endured by these individuals - men, women, and children alike. It serves as a powerful testament to the need for social reform and improved living conditions. As we gaze upon this haunting photograph today, let us remember those who came before us - those who fought tirelessly for better rights and protections for workers everywhere. May it serve as a constant reminder of our duty to create a more equitable society where no one is left behind or forgotten.
