We’re suing M&M’s parent company, @MarsGlobal for their continuous use of child labor. You can learn more here and contact Mars, along with the other companies we’re suing. https://t.co/cS8XBzEVfu

It is absurd that @mmschocolate has decided to use their resources to do a rebrand of their M&M’s characters that nobody asked for, all the while continuing to profit off of the trafficking, exploitation, and enslavement of children. It’s not only unacceptable, it’s embarrassing.

Scary Halloween story? Here are the facts showing Nestle, Cargill, Mars, Hershey, Mondelez, Barry Callebaut, and Olam continue to profit from forcing children to harvest their cocoa in Cote D'Ivoire. Slavery lives on in 2021: https://t.co/92HSqHHrv5

Our cases against @Nestle and @Cargill are far from over. We will not stop until these companies stop profiting from child slavery.

The fight against @Nestle and @Cargill is not over. We filed a human trafficking case against the two corporations. Our eight plaintiffs WILL get their justice.

It’s literally insane that tonight @nbcsnl will have @elonmusk, a man who has knowingly profited from the death and exploitation of their children, on their show. It’s not too late to give him the boot.

This week @IntlRightsDC filed the largest #childlabor class action lawsuit against chocolate companies 🍫 sourcing from Cote D’Ivoire 🇨🇮, & the first of its kind in US 🇺🇸courts.

As most of you know, we have been working for years at IRAdvocates to stop the major cocoa companies from using child slaves to harvest their cocoa. We filed a new case today against all of the major companies. Let's hope this helps! https://t.co/jOlbandB0o

Any of the things we listed here on its own would be completely unacceptable. Put together, it's immoral. It's time we let @Apple and @tim_cook know that we're all ready to hold them accountable.

There are some comments under this post asking "How do you you know that this miner isn't well paid, unexploited, and there of his own free free will?"
Let's talk. (Thread)

How it started How it's going

[International Rights Advocates @IntlRightsDC]

Not only that, but they can and should pay damages to the families of people who were injured or killed in these mining accidents. They can and should pay reparations to these communities. They can and should aid the improvement of these communities. They can and MUST do better.
