My Research paper

For this project, I am going to investigate the use of sweat shops and the fashion industry. I haven't exactly decided how I am going to narrow it down, but I'm debating between a specific area or a specific company to research. I think it would be interesting in both areas, but am leaning more towards a company such as Nike or Disney.
I feel like I could discuss how the big companies are violating the human rights of the people working and how it compares to wages in America. I could then talk about how this is cruel and unusual punishment and no one deserves this kind of treatment supported by real life examples(testimonies). I could also argue how certain regions are affected by this kind of work and if it is useful and affective.
