The Struggle to End Domestic Slavery in Lebanon

Alem Dechasa beaten and drudged by Lebanese men
What you see is just a group of Lebanese men doing exactly what it looks like: physically assaulting a visibly incapacitated Ethiopian domestic worker and forcibly packing her into a car outside of the Ethiopian embassy. The woman was later identified as Alem Dechasa, and she [reportedly] committed suicide only a few days later using the sheets of her bed at the mental hospital she was forcibly checked into.
