Professor: Hard To Believe is "Incredibly Effective" for University Classrooms

“I have been using Hard To Believe for a few classes related to China and globalization, and have found it incredibly effective. Organ Harvesting is the single most egregious example of China’s human rights issues, yet it’s a difficult topic to approach. With this well-made, intriguing and informative film, my students are thoroughly informed on the issue. Many expressed outrage at the crime, and commented why hadn’t they heard about it before. As an educator, I see my unshakable role here.”
