Where Am I Wearing

Where am I Wearing: A Global Tour to the Countries, Factories, and People that Make Our Clothes Where am I Wearing: A Global Tour to the Countries, Factories, and People that Make Our Clothes by Kelsey Timmerman


My review


rating: 4 of 5 stars
Kelsey Timmerman kind of sweetly and naively traipses off to "bridge the gap between consumer and manufacturer" and meet the people who make his clothes in Where am I Wearing. In doing so, he brings a fresh perspective to the shouting matches about sweatshops and child labor that we're always hearing. He interviews garment workers in a number of countries, takes them bowling and visits their families. In the end, he comes to some sane, well reasoned views on consumerism. Recommended.
