Yes -- it was heartbreaking to see the women tell about being beaten
on their necks with a shoe -- and being forced to kneel on the floor
and hold their hands in the air for 25 minutes -- as punishment. The
workers themselves make so little money they can't even afford a pair
of Nike shoes! And then the CEO of the company refused to be interview
on camera. What a sin!!
