Book
Made in China : a prisoner, an SOS letter, and the hidden cost of America's cheap goods / Amelia Pang.
Investigative journalist Amelia Pang pulls back the curtain on the labour camps that create the home goods we buy. The book follows the life of Sun Yi, the Chinese engineer and political prisoner. In chasing this story, Pang has conducted extensive interviews with Sun Yi and the people who knew him. She also traveled to China to follow falsified supply chains, tracking trucks from labour camps to warehouses. The story she uncovers is a call to action, urging the American consumer to ask more questions and demand more answers from the companies they patronize.
