Thanks Gare: Oyster Shuckers from South Carolina in 1912. Six year-olds would start work at 4am at the Maggioni Canning Company. You can guarantee that conservatives cried out "socialism" when unions fought to end child labor.
@KoKoKoKwe @Amma007 Their poor little hands
@KoKoKoKwe If we let them, Republicans would take us back to these times! You think I’m exaggerating? Just look at the number of children being killed from school shootings and not one word of outrage from Republicans! Not one!😩
@KoKoKoKwe My grandfather went to work for scrip in the coal mine at 12 years old. He told me they never had enough to eat and worked 10 hours a day. There is one generation between us. He told me if you lose your unions it will be back. Todays scrip is bad wages.
@KoKoKoKwe @colleenpierrerd Look at their faces. Maga would like this for your children too.
@KoKoKoKwe Back in 1912, democrats were too busy at their klan meetings to worry about such things.
@KoKoKoKwe You forget it was democrats that wanted slavery and kkk
@KoKoKoKwe Actually it would be Nebraska Senator (D) Tony Vargas. He supported human trafficking and daily wages as low as $2.5/day in 2019 to kids as young as those.
