Show Notes

On today’s show, Leonard interviews Shraysi Tandon, Director of Invisible Hands and Margaret Wurth from Human Rights Watch.

Produced by Oscar-winning filmmaker Charles Ferguson, “Invisible Hands” is the first feature documentary to expose child labor and trafficking within the supply chains of the world’s biggest companies. Filmed in six countries including India, China, Hong Kong, Indonesia and Ghana, it is a harrowing account of children as young as 6 years old making the products we use every day. The film marks the directorial debut of journalist Shraysi Tandon and features Nobel Peace Prize recipient Kailash Satyarthi, New York Times writer and two-time Pulitzer prize winner Nicholas Kristof, journalist Ben Skinner, author and activist Siddharth Kara and Columbia Law School professor Mark Barenberg.
