Child Labor Down on the Farm: Report by Laura Flanders
We often assume that child labor in the U.S. ceased after the labor movement fought for and won child labor laws many years ago. But a new report from the Children's Rights Division of Human Rights Watch notes that not only are hundreds of thousands of children working on farms around the country--they are doing so legally because of loopholes in the law.

We speak to Zama Coursen-Neff, Deputy Director of the Children's Rights Division, and via phone, Maria S. Mandujano, a former child farmworker who recently testified before Congress on children working on the farm.
