Prof. Gross Discusses Lawsuit against Cargill on MPR

Professor Oren Gross appeared on MPR's Morning Edition to discuss a recent decision by the 9th Circuit in a lawsuit brought by three Mali nationals against Cargill, Nestle, and Archer Daniels. In the lawsuit, the plaintiffs claim that they were forced to harvest cocoa in the Ivory Coast and that Cargill and the other defendant corporations were liable under the Alien Tort Statute for aiding and abetting child slavery.
