Political Speech (Child Labour in India) Imagine, how you would feel if you were one of those children from the industry, who have to wake up early in the morning and earn less amount of money each day? We have come really far, we continue to evolve, educate ourselves and we continue to get smarter and smarter every day. What we think smarter and clever, is not really smart. Are we smart enough to force the kids to work? Are we smart enough to ruin their sweet childhood and ruin their whole life? Child Labour is a social virus which spreads across the world. The children of India are highly affected, and it is an extremely painful issue in today 's modern world. Comrades, today I, as a genuine member of the Anti-Child Labour Organization is …show more content…
I would like to address my heartbreaking experiences from 2 years ago when I went to India as a member of anti-child labour organizer. I visited one most dangerous factory and I saw hundreds of children working in the dangerous circumstance. If they cannot lift an object or they don 't work hard, the supervisor cut off their money from their wages, hit them or didn 't give them food. I talked to every single child and I saw at least one bruise on their body. I saw one child whose legs are amputated because of heavy machinery. I realised that children in India are trying to survive by working like a slave for day and night to earn enough money to buy food and to find a shelter. Imagine what if one of the children is your daughter or son? what will you do? Will you encourage them to continue working under the hazardous circumstance? It is not too late to fix this social virus. Everything is possible if we try. The main thing I want to address is that we must stop child labour. We will fight for equality and make children free from being a slave. ' 'Blood will have blood ' '. If this social virus doesn 't stop, the next generation to generation will end up being labourer in a hazardous circumstances. Children in India, their dream and future are shattered and they have no hope to survive. You can save those children by voting for equality and by donating $1
Florence Kelley, a social worker and reformer for child labor laws, in her speech before the National American Woman Suffrage Association (1905), explains that the children endure appalling conditions everyday. Kelley supports her explanation by utilizing the horrendous diction, the intense imagery, and the negative emotion. Kelley’s purpose is to persuade her audience to create child labor regulations in America in order to make them feel guilty about the children's working conditions. The author writes in a passionate tone for the white men and women in the United States. Early in her speech Ms. Kelley utilizes horrendous diction.
Women and children have to work in a very bad situation long in a dangerous and unhealthy environment for a long hours. Most of them couldn’t bare the situation and got sick, but still they have to work to keep their
In the speech about Child Labor by Florence Kelley, Kelley writes about several little girls working in mills. However, she reveals her horrible feelings about child labor. Kelley’s use of repetition, imagery, and the appeals to logos and pathos reveal how children should be freed from working long and harsh nights because they are not adults. No other gender or age group has increased as rapidly as underage girls in the workforce.
This next document shows the negative side of children working in the factories "This shows the ugly side of child labor, Lack of safety features/unsafe working conditions, the children working are very young they are obviously not in school/lack of education” (Document8). In this document they talk about how children working in these factories don’t get a good education, they do not have enough time to attend school. It also shows how they are very easily injured from working in these harsh conditions. Not only was there unequal pay for women, boys, and girls, but there was
I 'm glad you have entrusted me to give away one million dollars to Progressive reforms. I had no idea there was an underside to America. I thought everything was going well because industry was booming. I found out more about the reforms from reading articles written by muckrakers. I read about deforestation, child labor, women’s suffrage, and food safety.
“Child labor and poverty are inevitably bound together and if you continue to use the labor of children as the treatment for the social disease of poverty, you will have both poverty and child labor to the end of time” (Grace Abbott). The issue of child labor has been around for centuries. Its standing in our world has been irrevocably stained in our history and unfortunately, our present. Many great minds have assessed this horrific issue and its effect on our homes, societies, and ultimately, our world.

If children were prevented from working until they were 11 or 12 years old it would hurt the family, there is not enough jobs for them to live on. (Ashly Commission) Mr. George Armitage is against girls working in mines. They should be educated in sewing and household duties. He is against children working in mines.
I wanna ask you all a serious question “Would you make your own child work in poor conditions?” Nowadays in the 21st century, the control and treatment of workers has gotten much better showing more of a caring and careful treatment towards them, and the decision to do it that way was done for the best. During the 1800s, many young children and others received jobs at Textile Factories; what the children didn’t know were all the hard times they’d have to deal with, The pollution of the air, the intense heat temperatures, the many brutal accidents such as ripped skin and muscles, and nobody batted an eye on it and just continued on like it was a normal thing. Seeing how dangerous and hazardous it can be, it’s pretty obvious when I say, Textile
Work should be a choice. Children often times have little to no freedom. Kids have their lives planned out by their parents. If children were allowed to have simple options. Such as work
Earning money is an unavoidable necessity for them”(Faulmuller). This is showing that these children that are sent to work, are working to benefit their families and themselves in hopes of pulling each other out of the poverty hole. “For example, when the U.S. Congress threatened to ban the import of clothing made by children under 14 in Bangladesh, around 50.000 of them went from their jobs in the relatively clean textile factories to collecting garbage, breaking bricks, or even prostitution. Moreover, economic modelling research implies that in certain situations (where demand is

But not all work done by children should be accepted as child labor. In other words, if a work doesn’t harm child’s health or personal development (educational issues), it is generally accepted as something positive and useful. Such activities develop children’s skills, provide experience and formulate them to be part of society. The term “Child Labor” is when children do work that damages their health or hamper mental or physical
