IQBAL MASIH: CHILD LABOR IN THE WORLD TODAY

This video was made after we read the book, Iqbal. It made quite an impression on us. The class wrote some "poems" to express their thoughts on the realities of child labor. The poems are pretty intense, but so is the subject. Thanks for watching!

New Geography Kings and Queens are "crowned"!
