Blood diamonds lecture

The DU Amnesty International chapter will be hosting Greg Campbell, author of the recent book, "Blood Diamonds."

This book has raised consciousness around the world about the crimes within the diamond industry.

He explains that conflict diamonds are mined in war zones, smuggled out of the country, and sold to legitimate companies while financing civil wars and the plots of international terrorists, including Al Qaeda.
