A grim reminder for us all

was this going to be it? http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=56850

 

no, but that's a start. There are a lot of links for the Coalition of Immokalee Workers and what they've uncovered and made public (sadly, with little attention or real change).

Well I went to the Coalition of Immokalee Workers website and had a bit of a read. Certainly, the fact that a form of slavery is still existent is disgusting to say the least.

As for your comment GodEater that there is little attention being given.... well, I have a theory as to an explanation.

As we all know, America is ridiculously capitalist extremist. Money talks and bullshit walks hombre. These big companies have massive financial power and I believe they are lining the pockets of the media and government in order to continue with their shady human rights track record.
