There are the popular blue jeans and other famous brands at one end of the chain, on the other end there are the dusty informal sweatshops full of bodies with a terminal illness in their lungs. Stoned jeans are sold more expensive, while the workers’ lives fall apart by the tiny bits of silica they constantly inhale. Everything happens in the blink of an eye. However, after a very serious civil disobedience and resistance developed by the workers, doctors, lawyers, artists and human rights defenders within the “Jeans Sandblasting Workers Resistance Committee”, this operation during the blue jeans production was banned in Turkey. Resistance will continue until the day when this deadly operation will be banned worldwide.
