Child Labor in the News

The Atlanta Constitution (November 19, 1900)


1.  What is this article reporting?
2.  Does this article seem biased (for or against child labor)?
3.  How do the cotton mill representatives stand?  What is their position on the issue?
4.  In Georgia, where do you think most children worked?
5.  How do you think child labor was different in the Northern states compared to the Southern states?
6.  Why do you think most child labor primary sources from this time period were from the North?
