Child slavery, working the cacao fields on the Ivory Coast. Poor farm kids from Mali looking for work, promised jobs in the cacao fields, find out they won't get paid and won't get to go home. The conditions are brutal, there is no respite, your family has no idea where you might be. Runaways are caught and beaten badly, let that be a lesson to the others. They work with pesticides with no gloves or breathing protection. They are given a minimum of food to eat. This isn't a job working in the cacao fields, this is out and out slavery. If you live through it then maybe you will be a boss in your turn, beating kids and sleeping in a house rather than a locked shed with the other kids.
Well-written and damning, very very sad.
