Beyonce has proven herself to be another far left wing hypocrite after it was revealed that her clothing line, Ivy Park”, is made in sweat shops in Sri Lanka. Women in those shops make 61 cents an hour and work 60 hours a week. One of her workers would have to save every penny they earned for 5 weeks of work (300 hours) in order to buy one pair of Beyonce sweats. Yeah, that seems fair to me.
You want to hear something funny? Let me show you Beyonce’s explanation on why she started the “Ivy Park” line:
Beyonce says she wants to empower women (Except the ones working for her) “women who want to look and feel at the top of their game.”
“My goal with Ivy Park is to push the boundaries of athletic wear and to support and inspire women who understand that beauty is more than your physical appearance. True beauty is in the health of our minds, hearts and bodies. I know that when I feel physically strong, I am mentally strong and I wanted to create a brand that made other women feel the same way.”
From Breitbart News:
The women and some men reportedly stitch clothes for the 228-piece clothing line by day and then return at night to live in a 100-room communal dorm with a shared shower block. The facility is reported to have a 10:30 pm curfew each night, mostly for the workers’ own safety.
“The work is hard — it’s just the same, same, same every day,” one machinist earning 18,500 rupees (roughly $125.30) per month told the paper. “We don’t get to go home much because we work all the time. They say if you work you can go up, up, up, but that’s just office workers. For us it stays the same always.”
I guess the fight for $15 hasn’t reached Sri Lanka yet. I guess Beyonce can keep exploiting black women as she adds to her family’s 750 million dollar fortune.
