  • Summary

  • In this episode, we’re exploring the dark side of the chocolate industry and how most chocolate sold in the United States is produced with forced child labor. This is an issue that has been known about for decades now, but still very little improvement has been made over the years to fix it.

    In fact the problem is still growing with reports showing that more than 1.5 million children engage in hazardous work on cocoa farms in West Africa alone.

    Terry Collingsworth is an international human rights attorney whose main focus is on litigating international human rights cases and leading evidence-gathering missions in countries that commit, allow or condone human rights abuses.
