Last
week 314 (and counting) garment workers died horribly in two factory fires in
Pakistan. They were making the clothes
and the shoes that any one of us can buy, that many of us wear - branded with
the names of familiar designers. The majority
of the dead were young women who died trying to use doors and windows that had
been blocked by their employer.
By
putting pressure on the Pakistani government and the labels that contract with
these factories we, you and I, can help make a difference. We can help make certain that no worker, no matter
where they work or what they do, ever gets killed by their job.
