How many times a week do you get Chinese take out? I know in my family it’s definitely once but probably twice. Even though I enjoy this food quite frequently I have little knowledge about the culture and society it comes from. Amnesty International has started to use chopstick inspired pencils to increase awareness about the human rights violations in China. Instead of directions for using chopsticks, these packages include directions for writing letters to the Chinese government asking them to stop torture. These pencils are not only original and creative but they help a great charity promote their message.
