A federal judge in Utah ordered the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (FLDS) and two of its affiliates to pay nearly $1 million for allegedly violating child labor laws when they employed minors on a ranch without paying them for years.+
#Utah
The decision comes after a 2012 video showed women and children working to harvest pecans at a farm in southern Utah. The US Department of Labor had filed a complaint, accusing bishop Lyle Jeffs and his business contractor, Brian Jessop, of illegally hiring the children.+ Image

This arrived today. The book is an attempt to present a historically-embedded account of western childhood and how the co-constitutive logics of capital and motherhood have shaped its modern understanding. @VSLIIMA

"Situated at the confluence of children's nature and childhood's nurture, mothers are those who most often held personally responsible for navigating the dense undergrowth of competing and confusing narratives and expectations of childhood." #childhood
"Three elements- childhood's pliability, maternal accountability for children and children's subjecthood- entangle and tussle with one another in a variety of ways to produce a 'moral architecture' of childhood."

بچوں کے #جنسی_استحصال پر عدالتوں اور نت نئے قوانین سے کیا ہوگا ؟ مکھی ہر مکھی نہ بٹھائیں بلکہ پرائمری سطح پر بچوں اور بچیوں کو الگ الگ قرآن و حدیث میں جو جنسیات و بلوغت کے احکام ہیں اس سے بدتریج آگاہ کریں جیسے کہ حیض و نفاس و مباشرت کے بارے میں کھل کر بتایا ہے

#ChildAbuse
اوریا مقبول جان ، ہارون الرشید اور دیگر بیمار ذہن اسکول میں بچے بچیوں کو جنسی آگاہی فراہم کرنے کو “شرم” و “غیرت” اور الحاد کا مسئلہ بنا رہے بتارہے ہیں زرا غور سے سورہ البقرہ میں بیوی کیساتھ مباشرت کرنے کے جو آداب بتائے گئے ہیں اس پر تفسیر ابن کثیر پڑھیں

مولانا اسماعیل سلفی صاحب نے کئ منکرین حدیث کو جنہوں نے احادیث پر “فحش” کا الزام اپنے جہل کی وجہ سے دھرا تھا انکی ایسی تیسی کرکے رکھ دی تھی اپنی تصنیف “حدیث اور حجیت حدیث” میں اور قرآن سے رد کیا تھا ایسی واہی بکواس کو۔ والدین اور ریاست بچوں کو آگاہ کریں

1/? THREAD: What can the world learn from Brazil’s struggle to #endslavery?

This week I’m visiting Brazil to consider that question.

Combining mobile inspection teams, social action & big data, Brazil’s efforts are amongst the most sophisticated in the world.
2/ >50000 modern slaves have been rescued by the Brazilian state since 1995.
On behalf of @UNUCPR @Delta87org & @FinComSlavery I'll meet with @undpbrazil @ilo @MPT_PGT @reporterb @experian & more, focusing on policy in agriculture & finance.

Learn more about slavery in Brazil & government efforts here: delta87.org/dashboards/bra…

On my recent trip back home, i decided to visit the areas that had gone through the anti-encroachment drive and interview the people in those areas. The stories we heard about families being forced onto the streets are, unfortunately, true.

Meet Interviewee 1: Ahmed, aged 13. It is nothing new to see Child Labour in Pakistan but Ahmed was recently forced to start working at his uncle’s Ajrak shop because his father’s small shop had been torn down by the government. Before that? He went to school.

#ChildLabour
Pictured here is Interviewee 2: Ahmed’s Uncle Sajjad, packing dozens of unsold Ajraks awaiting the imminent threat of the #government’s anti-encroachment drive. He had taken over this shop in Abdullah Market, Saddar from his late father 7 years ago and paid the rent ever since.
