Hello people of the world!!! Welcome to my blog! This is the first day of my blog. This blog is going to be mostly focused on human rights issues around the world.
Today I am going to talk about Camp 14. Camp 14 is a concentration camp in North Korea. This concentration camp has existed for decades. North Korea denies their existence, but in 2005, a prisoner escaped. His name is Shin Dong-Hyuk. He tells of the horrors in these camps. His teacher beat a 6 year old girl to death with a chalk board pointer. Guards often beat and torture prisoners because they are bored and desire some form of entertainment. Prisoners are always starving, and many die from it. Adult prisoners do labor like mining coal, hauling rocks, sewing military uniforms, breeding pigs (the meat is for the guards only), farming rice, and much more. They usually work 15-17 hour work days. Nothing can compare to the horrors in these camps...
Well, thats all for today, I'll post more about this topic tomorrow. Thanks for reading!!!
