Lest We Forget, Where Our Stuff Comes From
Protests by workers at Bangladesh’s many garment factories are spreading, even as riot police fire tear gas and water cannons at crowds of up to 20,000 people, including children. The workers are protesting conditions and wages, which now average $25 a month for sewing clothes for the western likes of Wal-Mart. One more reason among so many not to shop there. More photos here.
breaks my fucking heart.
Bangladesh, sadly, hasn`t been a safe place for decades- since my mother was a child. The whole place is corrupt.
Bangladesh. Brown people have so much to be ashamed of and enraged about when we think of our brothers and sisters struggling in places like these.
