I finally found a link to watch this documentary online. It's 40-some minutes long. Many emotions flared up when watching this. I did tear up at one point. I felt this helplessness build up inside me until it burst. There's nothing graphic in the film; it's just terribly sad yet informing. And the end is great. It leaves the viewer feeling like there is someone out there who is truely fighting this tragedy. You can click on the title of this post and it will take you to the site. (There are pop ups. Just close them and they won't come back.) Please watch. You won't regret it.

The Dark Side Of Chocolate
Not too long ago someone did a word of the day about cocoa beans becoming infected with viruses. I came across this online. It doesn't directly correlate with the article dicussed in class but it reminded me of it. Anyway, I haven't watched it. I haven't found anywhere to watch it online yet. It seems interesting. You can click on the title of the post and it will take you to the documentaries website where there is an about section.
