BLOOD DIAMONDS




When first given the assignment of creating a project based on my reaction to blood diamonds, I was terrified. It was not until after many talks with my roommate about the situation and a few spider charts that the real issue behind everything became clear to me. It is the monopolization of the diamond industry that causes all of the problems. They are the individuals putting such a high price on each diamond which is the basis for peoples need and greed for them. Because of the monopoly, it is an unavoidable never ending fight for each precious stone. How better to represent this than the game of monopoly?
