What can I learn from Newsies about what life was like for newsies in New York City in the late 1800s is that it was clear that life was not easy in New York City in the late 1800s.
Indeed, life was hard, more for poor people who had to make a living every day in order to survive.
In the case of the Newsies, they were orphans or boys who lived in the streets and sold newspapers to earn some money to make a living. They had to pay for the newspapers they tried to sell, and if they did not sell all the newspapers, the newspaper company did not reimburse their money.
These boys were exploited by powerful news tycoons like Randolph Hearst or Joseph Pulitzer. That is why the Newsies decided to go on strike on July 21, 1899.
Answer: A confrontation; a dare.
