[00:00.000] 作曲 : Baldwin, Luviner
[00:00.856]When you over in American Samoa
[00:02.512]What what surprised you the most
[00:05.151]I guess what hit me the most is the condition of the factory that the workers were in
[00:09.461]The factory was surrounded by a fence
[00:13.801]And barbed wire on top and on the bottom
[00:17.631]And they have a chain-linked fence surround the whole factory and
[00:20.615]And dormitory compound
[00:23.100]The gate has a has a guard shack where the guard sit there
[00:28.974]And control the worker movement in and out of the of the factory
[00:34.89]The factory are made of ahm
[00:37.128]Tin panels with tin roof
[00:40.48]It's really hot
[00:42.300]The temperature over there is verily ninety degrees
[00:46.313]And inside the factory or the dormitory
[00:49.40]It reaches way over a hundred degrees
[00:52.478]Yeah
[00:52.919]It's the contemporary form of slavery they call it slave labour
[00:56.197]But they don't prosecute them 'cause it's how they make paper
[00:58.728]When you rocking that fly ****that's made in China
[01:01.322]By an eight year old child tryna feed his mama
[01:03.996]He exposed to contamination and diseas
[01:06.511]And only fifty-five percent of them will get degrees
[01:09.100]And the women have to try to placate the boss
[01:11.632]Because it's sex discrimination in the labour force
[01:14.320]The slave master only let them speak in sign language
[01:16.960]And they're suffering from lung disease and eye damage
[01:19.648]Fourteen hour shifts seven days a week
[01:21.884]Two ****ty meals a day very little sleep
[01:25.385]Human life only worth three cents an hour
[01:27.572]All human right laws loose sense of power
[01:30.275]What did four hundred years in the grave p***es
[01:32.901]Only the improved cleverness of slave masters
[01:35.463]Is life worth living if you living in hell
[01:37.617]When the mind is confined to a prisoner's cell
[01:40.181]And the lies they devise in the system that fail
[01:42.635]But I expect the system to fail
[01:45.663]Is life worth living if you living in hell
[01:48.92]When the mind is confined to a prisoner's cell
[01:50.651]And the lies they devise in the system that fail
[01:53.199]But I expect the system to fail
[01:55.839]Many Chinese workers are forced to sign secret agreements
[01:58.667]Known as shadow contracts
[02:00.572]Before they leave China severely and in some ways
[02:03.870]Illegally restricting their activities while on American soil
[02:06.463]Workers are forbidden to participate in any religious or political
[02:09.236]Activity or to ask for a salary increase or even to fall in love or get married
[02:16.888]It's one point six million people locked in jail
[02:19.452]They do new slave labour force trapped in hell
[02:22.80]They generate over a billion dollars worth to power
[02:25.420]And only getting paid twenty cents an hour
[02:27.920]They make cloths for McDonald's and for Apple Bee's
[02:30.468]And working fourteen hour shifts in prison factories
[02:33.94]And while we sit around debating who the wack emcee is
[02:35.765]They have to work when arthritic pain attack the knees
[02:38.235]Slavery is not illegal that's a ****ing lie
[02:40.933]It is illegal unless it's for conviction of a crime
[02:43.575]The main objective is to get you in your ****ing prime
[02:46.263]And keep the prison full and not give you a ****ing dime
[02:48.967]But they the real criminal keeping you confined
[02:51.594]For a petty crime but they give you two-to-nine
[02:54.171]And ain't nobody there to protect ya
[02:56.719]Except a bunch of incompetent human rights inspectors
[02:59.297]Is life worth living if you living in hell
[03:01.543]When the mind is confined to a prisoner's cell
[03:04.81]And the lies they devise in the system that fail
[03:06.703]But I expect the system to fail
[03:09.403]Is life worth living if you living in hell
[03:11.873]When the mind is confined to a prisoner's cell
[03:14.610]And the lies they devise in the system that fail
[03:17.126]But I expect the system to fail
[03:20.223]The sweatshop situation's kind of cohesive
[03:24.760]And kind of take advantage on the people
[03:27.588]That are poor and at an economic disadvantage
[03:31.172]This Chinese woman made T-shirts and pants
[03:34.780]At the factory until she became pregnant
[03:37.142]When I told them I was pregnant
[03:38.846]They told me to have an abortion
[03:42.154]Tu Xiao Mei says she refused to have the abortion
[03:44.280]And has now been barred from entering the factory
[03:47.464]To allow them to bring that on to US soil is a very deep concern
[03:51.656]We've now documented the facts that management
[03:53.94]Coerces female workers who become pregnant into having abortions
[03:55.157]But human rights workers say it's common practice
[03:59.688]Inside that factory Chinese law applies and Chinese law is is supreme
[04:04.10]Even though it's the United States of America
[04:05.763]The flag doesn't fly inside there
