Dark side of chocolate.

  Cocoa beans.


For the past two weeks we have been learning in social studies how cocoa beans can relate to human rights. I found out that kids from Africa get forced to collect cocoa beans, there parents would rather them work instead of going to school and learn. They work 84 hours a week, 12 hours a day and get paid 10$ an hour. Witch is not minimum wage but what ever the kids get the parents take. It all comes back to human rights our main topic for this term. Here is my map about were cocoa beans come from originally, the places that have cocoa beans, the places that force kids to make chocolate, places that use cocoa beans for chocolate at the factory's and the places that sell chocolate. Hope you enjoy:).
