Made in China by forced labor




Halloween decorations carry haunting message of forced labor
Excerpt:


Keith, a 42-year-old vehicle donation manager at a southeast Portland Goodwill, at one point considered donating the unopened $29.99 Kmart graveyard kit. It was one of those accumulated items you never need and easily forget. But on a Sunday afternoon in October, Keith pulled the orange and black box from storage. She intended to decorate her home in Damascus for her daughter's fifth birthday, just days before Halloween.

She ripped open the box and threw aside the cellophane. That's when Keith found it.

Scribbled onto paper and folded into eighths, the letter was tucked between two Styrofoam headstones.
