When I was in Africa I noticed several of the locals wearing t-shirts that clearly came from the United States (by "came from", I mean mostly likely purchased and worn in the US, I'm not talking about raw materials or manufacturing, necessarily).
If you've ever wondered how a Carolina t-shirt gets from a shop in Chapel Hill to Mt. Kilimanjaro, or, if you've ever wondered how the shirt gets to the shop in Chapel Hill in the first place, go read "Travels of A T-Shirt in a Global Economy."
This book was the common reading at Carleton College this year and the North Carolina Carleton College Book Club read discussed it tonight.
