'Dark Side of Chocolate' to be screened tonight at Stutzman
Bluffton University's Peace Education and Action Community Endeavor (PEACE) Club and university senior Maggie Rose Stover, an intern for the Bluffton Fair Trade Task Force, will show the film "The Dark Side of Chocolate" at 9 p.m. tonight (April 20) in Stutzman Lecture Hall in Centennial Hall. The screening is free and open to the public.
The 45-minute documentary is about the cocoa supply chain in the Ivory Coast, West Africa, and the chocolate produced by children there.
The two filmmakers traveled to the Ivory Coast to learn about the production of chocolate. They also went undercover to film and interview child workers and people who are working toward abolishing child slavery.
Fair trade is also discussed in the documentary, which will be followed by time for questions and discussion.
