Summary
Hershey’s chocolate is chocolate gained from the forced labor of children who are trafficked throughout Africa, West Africa specifically. The chocolate company does not participate in “Fair trade” buying and thus help to create a need for child slaves and further perpetuates the enslavement of African children. beyond the issue of enslavement the people of west Africa are never compensated and left impoverished.
Opinion
I’m not entirely surprise that this company ahs basically re-enslaved a slew of African. Coincidently the Africans they brought to the states to enslave. its almost as if slavery never ended but was outsourced. I think this’ll further disenfranchise Africa as a continent if this is the way the children are being brought up, as slaves. The more of a tradition we make out of this the harder it will to be to break these people from the cycle of slave to slaver. I think its is especially disgusting how Americans have capitalized on this. Disgusting but not surprising.
