Abolitionists are fighting human trafficking and Modern day slavery on the front lines. And I knew I had to do something about the greatest Socioeconomic and a Multicultural Threat to Human Race. Joining FreedomNow – Community built knowledge base to counter human trafficking is the first step.
Human Trafficking – Greatest Socioeconomic and a Multicultural Threat to Human Race
1. Human Trafficking – Greatest Socioeconomic and a
Multicultural Threat to Human Race
Reading through a book named as Human Trafficking by Courtney Farrell regarding
Human Trafficking in relation to Modern Slavery, I was shocked by listening to a story
in the beginning of the book which tells about a nine year old girl Williathe Narcisse,
who was a slave in Haiti before she arrived in the southern United states to work for
her new owners there. In United States, she cleaned house for her mistress, worked in
her master’s business and was abused sexually by their adult son. If she dared
complained her treatment, she was whipped until she bled.
The most shocking part which I conceived is the United States of America made slavery
illegal in 1865, but the above mentioned brutal incident happened in 1996.
This is not it, this was a short glimpse or only a one story from an archive which struck
my nerves, there are some very teasing human trafficking statistics that will rattle
anyone’s mind with pain and I really want to share it with my audience as people must
know that human trafficking is the Greatest Socioeconomic and a Multicultural Threat
to Human Race!
Bleeding Human trafficking aka Modern Slavery Statistics you should Read to
know the proximity of the Problem:
• 27 million people are surviving in human trafficking slavery worldwide which
tells us that there are more slaves around the globe than from the African
history of about 300 years back when Trans-Atlantic slave trade has happened.
• According to some United Nations Organization report, human trafficking
slavery will beat drug trafficking in the race of most organized crime around the
world by the end of this year.
• There will be more people trafficked each year and the number rises up to
hundreds of thousands, leaping up to most slaves alive in the human history.
• According to Dept. of State – United States, approximately 800,000 to 900,000
people trafficked across international borders worldwide annually.
These are few numbers and I don’t really have the courage to write more of them as
the list is infinite in number. Every gender alive on earth is going through such
brutality, whether they are male, female or children. Labor trafficking, women
trafficking, child trafficking, sex trafficking are some terms that hits your heart. This all
happening for the money people are running after. This is lust of getting richer by the
sake of humanity by people who are known as human traffickers. The word human
traffickers is not right for them, I feel that they must be called as Humanity
Traffickers.
2. What We Can Do To STOP HUMAN TRAFFICKING and to End Human Trafficking
Stories Around the World:
Solution:
1. Learn about human trafficking and anti human trafficking programs and
Educate Others. Follow United Nations Organization programs to fight
human trafficking.
2. Look for the Signs and indicate trafficking in persons to the people.
3. Start a Revolution to End this Social Crime once and forever, because drop by
drop an ocean forms and by the power of ocean, you can bring a tsunami of
change and an eventual end to human trafficking.
Defeating human trafficking is a great moral calling of the day. Together with Global
allies and friends, we can strengthen the efforts to bring this cruel practice to an end.
Start a new abolitionist movement and let people know around you that there is a
solution. Together we can make a difference, and together we can build a safer, freer,
and more prosperous world for all.
