About the Book

Those who have a voice don't care about the voiceless. What interests them most of the time is what's in it for them. Every day you'll see a crusader making believe he is helping the little people. Not true. It is the glory of being seen on television. One crusader gave interviews and very soon he became one of them and forget all about the little people. He used to tell the voiceless that they are not alone. The sad part is they believed him, even though they knew it was too good to be true, but still hoping that he was different. People always believed what they wanted to, even when they faced reality. They still refused to see it:  Mistreatment can only happen in foreign country, and child abuse doesn't exist in the United States. Americans don't have to go to Bosnia, Honduras, or Pakistan to find the abusers, they are here with us every step of the way. The powerful people refused to see them. The abusers are, and can be, everywhere. They can be visible and invisible. They can be nice or mean, and they can be anything they want to be, or anything we want them to be.

Beautiful people dress like there is no tomorrow, but it is normal for those wonderful people to dress up on special occasion to see and be seen. I am asking you to think about us little people every time you dress up. The designers who design your clothes do not make them, the sewers sew them, the drapers drape them, the patternmakers makes the fits, us the invisible people behind the closed door, the suffering workers. I know that most of you do not wear fur coats even though some sewer's job is eliminated, you don't eat meat because you love animals. You would rather go naked than wear a fur coat. You gave up a good filet mignon because you believe in something. I would not dare ask you to give up fashion for a cause you are not familiar with. Perhaps animals are more important than immigrant workers in the garment Industry. From now on every time you get up take your shower, get dressed, it does not have to be fancy. Like the show Bring In Da Noise, Bring In Da Funk, we sew for them, too. We are sewers, and we sew for anyone and everyone. Whatever you are wearing or plan to wear, think about us the unseen and unheard workers.
