Al Jazeera is increasingly becoming one of the most well-respected media sources in the world.
They've always been in the spot light in the eyes of those that have them open, but only recently did
they shoot to greater fame with their coverage of the Egypt revolution and the rest of the Arab Spring.

 Recently, they've gotten into the realm of documentaries, all accessible via their YouTube Channel. Each of them touch on various geopolitical issues from around the world, and all are brilliant works of journalism.

Today's Daily Quota is titled 'Bridal Slaves: A 21st Century Evil' and contains some truly provocative content.
This 24 minute documentary follows a British journalist into Indian villages where he learns more about arranged marriages, abortions and how they contribute to the 27-million cases of enslavement around the world.

First-world viewers truly appreciate the safety that they take for granted when they hear first-hand stories of druggings, beatings and female lives damaged beyond repair by this sickening phenomenon.
This is an incredibly moving documentary, and only scrapes the surface of the tip of the iceberg of this global problem.
Set some time to watch this at home and spread the awareness of, what I think is, the most heinous thing someone can do to another human being.
