Lewis Hine's work extended beyond the canning industry. He also documented the hardships faced by children working in the cotton mills of the South. Some were as young as five, enduring exposure to perilous machinery and harmful dust particles. The extensive hours and strenuous labor frequently resulted in severe health issues, such as respiratory diseases and physical deformities.
Hine's photographs also exposed the perilous conditions within coal mines, where child labor was prevalent. Boys as young as eight were engaged as "breaker boys," responsible for separating coal from slate. This work was not only physically demanding but also extremely hazardous, leading to frequent accidents and injuries.
Alongside his photographs, Hine often incorporated direct quotes from the children he captured, providing poignant insights into their lives. These quotes unveiled the stark reality of their daily challenges, aspirations, and their strength in the face of adversity. This combination of powerful imagery and personal accounts made Hine's work a compelling tool for advocating child labor reform.

Racism in Europe is so terrifying. Was chatting to a Nigerian guy living in Germany on the train the other day. He said one day during a storm a tree on his street fell down and blocked the pavement. He decided to pick it up and move it out of the way so people could pass...
Inclusive education is not only a matter of human rights or justice, but also an opportunity for improving:
