But at least one group says the tours “turn poverty into entertainment.”
Stop.
JFC. Wow, I wonder who’re the people making money off this humans on display stroll. I’m totally certain it’s going to help people living in poverty so they can have better lives.
They had bus tours of some of the villas in Buenos Aires when we were there. Rich Americans looking through bus windows at poor people. Ugh.
Fetishizing poor people for fun and profit. Despicable. The whole “voluntourism” thing is problematic, but to say “we turn crippling third-world poverty into FUN FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY!” is taking it to a new level of awful.
