    These people are to be admired by all of us for the hard work they do and unfortunately we don't realize it, but only when we see great videos like this. Thanks Slava and Lena for this great video.

    Amazing work. Useful to remember the hard work that goes into making t-shirts or jeans.

    That's the way it was done on the family farms here in Alabama, USA when I was a kid during the 1940-1950's. They had big long bags that they drug along the ground. They were 6-8 feet long. Instead of tractors they had mule drawn wagons to receive the cotton. These were family farms. The older children were excused from school for "cotton picking" for a week or two in September. The adults would also swap out picking for other family farmers. This was the cash crop for the families.Fortunately, my family moved to the city when I was about 3 and I missed the "fun" of cotton chopping and picking.....😁😁😁😁

      We did very similarly in Oklahoma in the 1950's except we picked the entire boll and not just the lint. I remember my Mom could pick 200 pounds and earn $20 a day. I tried it and hated the work and the pain to my hands. When blacks complain that their ancestors had to pick cotton I have to chuckle. We were all very white where we lived and worked as well. Gave us a good reason to get college degrees.

    I notice their fields are clean after picking. In Giddings, Texas, the cotton balers come and after they harvest a field, the whole farm is white with wasted cotton. It's bound to have all the leaf and stem parts mixed in. I can't imagine how that would be separated by machines. The cotton these people pick is so clean! You can't beat hand picked cotton. Beautiful!

    Little disappointed with this last video as it’s only about five minutes in length and you’re not in it at all. There’s no dialogue going on. But I’m keeping in mind that you’re probably not as equipped as you were prior to having to move.
