EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, taken in 1910 by Lewis Wickes Hine, transports us to Theodore Budds Bog in Turkeytown near Pemberton, New Jersey. The image depicts a poignant scene of children diligently carrying their pecks of cranberries to the "bushel man". Hine, an investigative photographer for the National Child Labor Committee during that period, dedicated his work to shedding light on the harsh working conditions and exploitation faced by children across various industries. This particular photograph serves as a powerful testament to his mission. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness young boys and girls engaging in agricultural labor amidst migration and poverty. Their faces reflect both determination and weariness as they navigate through rows of cranberry bushes with baskets filled with precious fruit. The presence of both men and women further emphasizes the communal effort required for survival during those challenging times. Each individual plays a vital role in ensuring a successful harvest. As we gaze upon this historical document, it is impossible not to feel moved by the resilience displayed by these child workers. Through Hine's lens, their stories are immortalized – reminding us of the hardships endured by many during an era marked by economic struggle. This remarkable photograph stands as a reminder that art has the power to transcend time; it urges us to reflect on our past while inspiring action towards creating a better future for all children around the world.
