An interview with Paul Hoffman, attorney for child slaves at Ivory Coast cocoa plantations
Six youth between the ages of 12 and 14 from the impoverished African nation of Mali were taken from their homes and enslaved on Ivory Coast cocoa plantations. For years they were whipped and beaten, forced to work over 12 hours a day, six days a week, fed scraps, sleeping on dirt floors in shacks stuffed with other child slaves.
After years of enslavement, each youth escaped and returned to Mali. After their stories became known, in 2005 international human rights lawyers sued the corporations, Nestlé USA, Inc., and Cargill, Inc., that profited from the forced labor.
