Post 2: Int. Human Rights

1. Research Question: Why is it that Walmart supports sweatshops by buying goods from them to sell in their stores?

2. Will have to research how much money the sweatshop workers are being paid, what Walmart's reasons for their support of sweatshops are, why some who are informed continue to buy goods from Walmart?

Step 1 International Human Rights

1. I am interested in doing my International Human Rights presentation on Walmart supporting inhumane sweatshops that violate UDHR Article 24 by buying their products and how Americans are indirectly contributing to labor brutality by buying Walmart products. This interests me because it is very current and many Americans buy goods from Walmart, many not knowing that much of their goods are made in sweatshops by people who barely get payed anything and are struggling.
