Serious question: How are unpaid internships legal?

I am genuinely curious as to how unpaid internships do not violate labor laws at the state and federal level. They're exploitative, and they generally exist as a classist method of weeding out people who don't have the means to work for free for an extended period of time. I just can't wrap my head around how they're legal.
