Every child deserves a childhood, not a shift at a factory. Lewis Hine’s powerful photographs exposed the harsh reality that many children once faced—long hours, dangerous machines, and no chance at education. These images are not just history; they are a reminder of the importance of protecting children’s rights today. Child labor is a violation of human dignity, and we must continue to speak out against it wherever it still exists. Let’s honor the courage of those children and the work of people like Hine by ensuring that no child is ever forced to choose work over a future.
