Slavery, murder & suicide in
Thailand's fishing industry
Video
Guardian Animations 22 September 2014
In Kyra Bartley's animation
based on interviews carried out
as part of that investigation
into slavery in the supermarket shrimp supply chain,
a Burmese man describes how
enslaved workers often take their own lives
to escape a world where the
slightest blunder or act of dissension
can result in barbaric
violence and murder.

If It Were My Home
The headlines tell a lot
about the crisis in Yemen:
internal strife,
evacuations
of international aid workers,
Saudi Arabian airstrikes.
But you may have
one very basic question
that you can't easily find
an answer for:
How big is Yemen,
anyway?
You can look at maps
and check out Wikipedia
but wouldn't it be great
to just to slap an outline of Yemen
on top of a map of the United States
to get a sense of its size?
IfItWereMyHome.com
lets you do just that.
