Converse is one of the most well known brands in the world. However, have you looked at where they came from? What the conditions are like? What it took to create the pair of Converse you're wearing? Workers in Indonesia, and 8 other countries, are paid below minimum wage (50 cents an hour) and are forced to work long hours. If they do not reach a quota, they are punished, and furthermore, harassed by their supervisors. The parent company of Converse, Nike, is not doing anything to help these workers. But YOU can. Sign this petition to help the Indonesian Converse workers make a living and have a better working environment. Support the Indonesian workers and take a stand!

BOYCOTT NIKE if they dont fix these factories. 50 cents an hour is criminal.
