[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They were beaten. Also, even from a very young age, many many kids worked, either on the family farm or in factories. As young as age 3 and 4, doing very simple tasks. [/quote] In the 50s????[/quote] Yes, who do you think picked crops? Particularly in the south and California[/quote] This was before my time but I had some bosses and older workers who as kids worked in the fields in the south. Breaktime on the farm was RC and a whoopie pie. The kids were kind of shared out to different farms to do field work. I've had seniors of both races tell me they did this in their childhood in the south.[/quote]
