This is the link from the video. It’s important that we try to take action. Don’t buy chocolate that may be connected with slavery. In the link there’s also information about slavery free chocolate.

End child labor in the cobalt and cocoa industries.
On chocolate, coffee, tea, other products coming from the global south: if you can afford it, buy only products with some kind of a certificate that demonstrates the product has been ethically produced (and this has been verified by an outside agency), such as the Fairtrade, UTZ or Rainforest Alliance certificate.
But also beware that some producers have made up their own certificates, with no outside oversight. These essentially fake certificates include Cocoa Life, the certificate invented by Mondelez – one of the companies listed behind the link for using slave labour, who stopped using Rainforest Alliance certified cocoa and switched to their own certificate instead.
here’s a list of companies who use fair trade chocolate:
Clif Bar
Tony’s Chocoloneley
Ben & Jerry’s
Aloha Feels
Newman’s Own Organics
The Endangered Species Chocolate
Dagoba Organic Chocolate
Starbucks
Aldi’s brand
Green & Blacks
Sappho Chocolates
Larabar
