Film – At The End of Slavery
I just watched the hearbreaking trailer – The End of Slavery. Slavery, also known as “human trafficking” is more rampant today than during the trans-Atlantic slave trade. Child prostitution, child labor, forced labor of adults – all of it is modern day slavery. Today more than 30 million men, women and children are enslaved by violence, threats and coercion. I got this from the site:
Narrated by actor Danny Glover, At the End of Slavery: The Battle for Justice in our Time takes you inside the violent and ugly business of modern-day slavery — the buying and selling of human beings — from the brothels of the Philippines to the brick kilns of India.
Undercover footage and first-person testimony from former slaves and respected experts expose the enormity of the crime — but a remarkable strategy and the courage of today’s abolitionists offer hope for a final end to this brutal trade.
This film talks about “Rule of Law,” and how to take a stand against these attrocities so that we can work together to end slavery in all its forms. I was impressed by this group’s innovative grass-roots methods when I explored the site after watching the trailer. I stumbled upon this film’s “house kit” than will enable me to have a screening at my home and at my work. I ordered the kit to do both! Even though I write most blogs about how polygamy overlaps with human trafficking, this was too compelling to leave aside for even another day. I promise I will do part II of my human trafficking and polygamy series tomorrow!
