New Spanish-language Episode added: Tomar una Foto: Agente de Cambio
Tomar una Foto: Agente de Cambio (Snap a Photo: Agent of Change looks at how photographers helped convince Congress to pass child labor laws, focusing on some of Lewis Hine's photographs that exposed child working conditions and advocated for child labor laws to protect children.
By asking WHO the photographer was who captured these photos, this episode also highlights sourcing of information as part of historical inquiry.

An English-language version is also available.
