Desperate Cotton Farmers Featured by Tribune

Remember Andolan, one of the blogs I featured on Blog Day? I am pleased to report that Kim Barker, foreign correspondent at the Chicago Tribune reported on the sad plight of India's cotton farmers. As is the way of Andolan, the story was copied on the Andolan Blog the other day. While I know nothing about the politics of the situation, this is an exceedingly sad story that deserves your attention and maybe a blog post. Raising awareness is always a beginning.
