Fayyaz is one of the few brick kiln workers who escaped the slavery and now earning a respectable life as a garderner. Episode 03 of Bonded by Brick takes a look at how life changes when a labour gets free from the bondage of debt and where the concerned authorities are lacking in safeguarding the rights of brick kiln workers.
More than 4 million bonded labourers, around 20,000 brick kilns, and 1 human rights activist working for their freedom; TCM presents ‘Bonded by Brick’, an exclusive documentary series which explores different dimensions of modern day slavery that exists in almost every rural and urban centres across Pakistan.

So sad, I wish there was something I could do to help! More people in the US need to hear about this, we have so much capital to create sustainable markets in these countries. If only people cared less about themselves and more about the women and children put through these unfair and painful circumstances. I feel so blessed to have been born in America, I want to do anything I can to help these kiln workers live a life of autonomy and freedom as I have been graciously gifted since the day I was born.

Jerry Boy, from an American to another, there is slavery, abject poverty, abuse in the foster system, people dying because of lack of healthcare in the USA. Focus on these issues in USA before gloating and helping a society which was created for propagating slavery. That’s why Pakistan was created. Don’t put your finger where it does not belong.

Can you help to publicise and aid families trapped in bonded labour in Pakistan’s brick kilns? I came back from India last year moved by the migrant families caught in a vicious circle of poverty and debt. Driven by extreme poverty, seasonal employment and pressing needs, men take out loans for critical expenses or daily living. But these loans come with an unimaginable price - they are bound to work at the kilns until they can repay their ever increasing debts. Generations of oppressed people live and work in Asian brick kilns, robbed of their freedom and human rights. These families are often the poorest of the poor. Your sponsorship or donation, however small, would help fund a video exposing this modern slavery. I would in turn use my documentary to raise funds for a variety of charities and faith groups helping Pakistani brick slaves. Such absolute poverty and degradation is hard to imagine. That’s why I’m asking you to donate generously to my campaign here: www.launchgood.com/campaign/bricked_in_by_slavery#!/. Please click on the link for further information and Q and As.
