  2. "Sandra Wisner, director of the International Human Rights Program at the University of Toronto, got together with some of her colleagues and submitted a complaint with the Canada Border Services Agency about American produce and products made in the U.S. with prison labor, specifically in Alabama. Their argument? The Canadian law that was meant to ban goods made by forced labor in China applies just as much to the U.S., and it's hard to not see their point."

  24. "#Anglican #missionary Rev. #WBLewis describing the desperate situation of #Jews living in #Jerusalem under #Ottoman #Turkish rule in 1824.

    #Lewis wrote his letter from #Aintoura, a village in present-day #Lebanon, on February 23, 1824. His account is one of the most detailed non-#Jewish eyewitness reports of what life was really like for Jews in the #HolyLand at that time.

    He describes horrifying #extortion, #beatings, wrongful #imprisonment, #forcedlabor, and stolen property — all suffered by a community with no #European diplomatic protection in Jerusalem. The letter also covers the long Jewish struggle to reclaim the ruined #Hurva #Synagogue, which had been destroyed by #Arab creditors a century earlier.

    This document is historically valuable precisely because Lewis was a non-Jewish outsider with nothing to gain by exaggerating. His testimony confirms what Jewish sources also describe about life under Ottoman rule in Jerusalem."
