Why We Are Adopting the New Logo "This Website NOT Produced Using Slave Labor"...


Why We Are Adopting the New Logo "This Website NOT Produced Using Slave Labor"...


Are you aware that those tomatoes, oranges and other fruits and vegetables that you are using may have been picked by people and corporations using slave labor right here in the USA? Neither were we until we became aware of John Bowe's important book "Nobodies...Modern American Slave Labor and the Dark Side of the New Global Market". For more information on this modern and disturbing phenomenon, please purchase and read Mr. Bowe's book. As you can see on the cover photo, agriculture is one place where the temptation to use, and the use of slave labor has and continues to exist. Please feel free to adopt our logo for your website, product, and so on. If you are genuinely concerned, get in touch with your produce supplier and ask if slave labor has been used anywhere along the supply chain (Note: they will probably claim they are not - ask them if they can account for their contractor's potential abuse of slave labor laws in the agriculture supply chain). Ask them if they are interested in using the anti-slave labor logo.
