The movie Newsies is a musical rendition of historical Newsboys Strike of 1899. The strike by the homeless children who made their living distributing newspapers was successful and inspired similar strikes later on. Eventually this led to various child-welfare practices being introduced in an era where the exploitation of child labor is common place and where people often act with indifference to the problem.
