Gunter Wallraf, father of undercover journalism, defender of human rights and immigrant rights, now turns his sights against supermarket chains and exposes the dark side of consumerism.

This Giant was once arrested and tortured by my country's dictatorship, back in 1974 when he had the idea to protest in favour of human rights, by chaining himself to an electricity post next to the parliament, in Syntagma square (Constitution square) of Athens, handing out leaflets, and deliberately carrying no ID papers on him, so that he would be considered a Greek and certainly be detained.
In his appearance in the court, he pointed out the ignorance/indifference of Tourists then visiting Greece about the ugliness of the dictatorship, and he attributed it to lack of information in the press. He was sentenced to 14 months, but was released in 3 months as the regime collapsed.

How many tourists today visit similar regimes, just to bask in the sun? How long can human rights abuses be filed under 'cultural differences' , 'cultural sensitivity' & 'respect to local culture'. There is but one Culture, the Human one, and Gunter Wallraff shows the way to real travellers - each one can be an undercover journalist!
And I would love seeing Mr Wallraff 'working' in a mega-resort.
