Did you know?
In 1917, in the year that Stephen Hlavka was born, on July 28, between ten and fifteen thousand blacks silently walked down New York City's Fifth Avenue to protest racial discrimination and violence. Lynchings in Waco Texas and hundreds of African-Americans killed in East St. Louis Illinois had sparked the protest. Picket signs said "Mother, do lynchers go to heaven?" "Mr. President, why not make America safe for democracy?" "Thou shalt not kill." "Pray for the Lady Macbeth's of East St. Louis" and "Give us a chance to live."
Did you know?
In 1930, he was just 13 years old when on August 6th, N.Y. Supreme Court Judge Joseph Crater went through papers in his office, destroyed some of them, withdrew all his money from the bank - $5,150, sold his stock, met friends at a restaurant for dinner and disappeared after getting into a taxi (or walking down the street - his friends' testimony later changed). His disappearance was reported to the police on September 3rd - almost a month later. His wife didn't know what happened, his fellow Justices had no idea, and his mistresses (he had several) said that they didn't know. While his disappearance was front page news, his fate was never discovered and after 40 years the case was closed, still without knowing if Crater was dead or alive.

Before Child Labor Laws: Every Boy & Girl had a Job
You may be surprised to know that until the Great Depression children were an important part of the work economy in the United States. In textile mills and coal mines where their small size was an asset, in canneries, and on farms (not just family farms), children performed many vital tasks. Working conditions were rough, and thanks to photographers like Lewis Wickes Hine we have these photos to document what these children endured. We were shocked by these photos, and think you might be too.
