They go around in the mill, often help tend to the machines, which often run at noon, and so learn the work. A teacher told me the mothers expect the children to learn this way, long before they are of proper age. (See also Vaughn's [?] Georgia Report, April, 1913.) Location: Columbus, Georgia.

Kilns of Afghanistan
January 6, 2012, Surkhrod District, Afghanistan: Kiln workers stand atop the massive kiln, or oven, where the bricks are baked to hardness. The fire is stoked through the holes, at right. The kiln is so hot that the men can heat their tea kettles on it. The workers are coerced into a form of indentured servitude. Most borrow a sum of money from a "boss" to pay for a funeral, sickness or wedding. Once they become indebted to an kiln manager, they are obliged to continue working for years for very little money. Their contracts often state that their children must work too. The children start working around the age of 7. Very few of them go to school, most follow their fathers into the cycle of servitude. ///Kiln workers standing atop of the massive kiln to bake bricks.

Kilns of Afghanistan
January 6, 2012, Surkhrod District, Afghanistan: Naqibullah 20-years-old carries his younger brother Hamidullah 8-years-old to a doctor's office. The younger brother has a fever and is ill. The brothers and their family work in the brick kilns and are indebted to the owners. (Like many Afghans, they use just one name.) The children that work here are exposed to some of the highest rates of pneumonia and respiratory illnesses in the world, according to UNICEF, as a result of breathing dust and smoke from the kilns. If the illness is expensive, the family will have to borrow more money from the kiln owner to whom they are already indebted. The kiln workers are coerced into a form of indentured servitude. Most borrow a sum of money from a "boss" to pay for a funeral, sickness or wedding. Once they become indebted to an kiln manager, they are obliged to continue working for years for very little money. Their contracts often state that their children must work too. The children start working around the age of 7. Very few of them go to school, most follow their fathers into the cycle of servitude. ///An Afghan boy, Naqibullah 20-years-old carries his younger brother Hamidullah 8-years-old to a doctor's office.
