The Dark Side of Chocolate - Child Slavery

Updated: 24 Jul 2012

BV 11-11 The Dark Side of Chocolate - Child Slavery "The Dark Side of Chocolate" directed by Miki Mistrati shows that young children are still being illegally sold to cocoa plantations in the Ivory Coast, Africa to harvest much of the cocoa crop used by Nestle, Hershey and the major chocolate producers of the world. In 2001, these large chocolate producers signed the Cocoa Protocol which promised to work for the eradication of child labor by 2008. The Church of the Brethren Annual Conference in 2008 passed a resolution against slavery in the 21st century. That action was the 10th time that the Church of the Brethren had passed anti-slavery resolutions:. Nine other resolutions were passed from 1782 - 1857, prior to the US civil war to end slavery. The 2008 resolution made a commitment to educating ourselves and others about modern day slavery. --  For a quick view on YouTube of more PEGMedia films available from Brethren Voices: http://BrethrenVoices.at7c.com  --
