This is an issue that has always existed, but not until many Christians and Christian organizations began to get involved and spread more awareness did it really seem to develop. It is the church’s job to help spread awareness about human sex trafficking in the United States and to help these victims that are trapped in the industry. Some people might not want to get involved, but it is a duty as the Body of Christ to step up. Proverbs 31:8-9 says, “Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy.” These victims cannot speak for themselves, because if they try to escape they are beaten, raped and tortured. It is up to the church to stand up for them and spread awareness to

In April of 1975, Saigon, the South Vietnamese capital, fell. This triggered the end of the Vietnam War, the only real defeat in American military history. Two months later, the movie Jaws was released, and it was a smash hit, the first real blockbuster in the history of American cinema. The success of the film is of course related to the fact that it was based on a popular book, built suspense like few if any previous films had done, and of course was marketed and released on an unprecedented scale that led to a new trend among films. However, there are reasons that this film was so successful in its time. In the wake of seeing the United States fail to stop the Communist beast it had been fighting for over twenty years, Americans were looking

Lions, and impala, and buffalo, oh my! While on safari in Africa, novice hunter Francis Macomber embodies the cowardice within mankind, on the other hand his professional guide, Robert Wilson, represents a force of masculinity. Such character foils are especially prevalent when Macomber chooses to flee when coming face to face with a lion, while Wilson chooses to stand his ground and fight. Thus in Ernest Hemingway's “The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber”, the notion that everybody is afraid of something, but not everybody is a coward is highlighted through the thoughts, appearance, and actions of the two main male characters.

When one hears the words “Human sex trafficking”, they probably think of girls being stolen from their homes or lured into mysterious white vans and whisked away into the black market of sex trafficking. While these methods are not uncommon in the world of trafficking, the rise of technology and popularity of social media has given way to completely new opportunities for sex traffickers and pimps to scope out and lure potential trafficking victims. In the same way, this rise in technology and social media also offers law enforcement and special agencies new and unprecedented ways to stop black market deals before they happen, locate victims, set up sting operations,

Sex trafficking, the selling of women to traffickers and pimps to become sex slaves in an illegal matter, have become the norm for girls/women in countries such as Turkey. In Ukraine, trafficking is one of the largest markets for the old Soviet Black. Every year, thousandths of women are being taken from their lives and family to be sold into enslavement. These women are victims of a multi-billion-dollar international business. In the documentary, “Sex Slaves”, an observation was done to see and understand how trafficking works through the stories of different women. The documentary consists of the story of 5 women, Tania, Eva, Anya, Katerina, and Katia, whose husband is willing to do anything to get her back. These 5 women had one thing in

Sex Trafficking varies from street prostitution to operating in brothels. Dominantly adult women make up most of the industry, women are pushed into poorly paid jobs, which leaves them vulnerable to sex traffickers. Organized crime rings are dominantly responsible for the widespread of corruption and greed, which make it possible for sex trade. Victims are kept in captivity and trapped by debt bondage before they can be released. During victims’ entrapment, experiences range from physical and mental torture to starvation and psychological abuse. Victim, Karla Jacinto says, “30 men a day, seven days a week, for the best part of four years—43,200,” describing the amount of times she was raped over the years of being

Human trafficking or sex slavery is a real occurrence.  Force 4 Compassion, a website designated to informing the public about human trafficking reports,  “3,287 people are sold or kidnaped and forced into slavery every day.  That’s 136 an hour and that’s just the reported cases” (“Human Trafficking Facts”). Atwood shines light on the situation by stating one of the main reasons human trafficking occurs is “because there was only so much food to go around" (Atwood 117).  In a world with so much why do young children and families with so little have to suffer?  Why must these girls come to peace with the images they have seen?  Why must families justify the sales of their daughters by stating “In the village it was not called ‘selling,’ this transaction.  The talk about it implied apprenticeship.  The children were being trained to earn their living in a wide world” (Atwood 116).  An honest living that involves a girl not yet a teenage to undress in front of a man multiple times her age in exchange for money (Atwood 131).  It does not have to be that way.  Atwood makes that clear.  If the root of the problem is there is not enough food for the children to survive there is a simple solution. If society was more aware of what was happening the increase in awareness and charitable contributions could lead to a hopeful tomorrow. While this answer seems easy enough to apply the

Sex trafficking is essentially systemic rape for profit. Force, fraud and coercion are used to control the victim’s behavior which may secure the appearance of consent to please the buyer (or john). Behind every transaction is violence or the threat of violence (Axtell par. 4). Just a decade ago, only a third of the countries studied by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime had legislation against human trafficking. (Darker Side, par.1) Women, children, and even men are taken from their homes, and off of the streets and are brought into a life that is almost impossible to get out of. This life is not one of choice, it is in most times by force. UNODC estimates that the total international human trafficking is a

Jasmine, a 13 year old girl, is roped into sex trafficking by “the man she thought was her boyfriend and protector [and now he] is selling her for sex to make money for his gang. She is stuck in ‘the game’ for more than five years…” (Basich).

The typical modern-day American is as busy as a bee and has thousands of things running through his or her mind every day. However, some men and women do not get to spend their days worrying about work, family and friends. Sex trafficking is a form of modern slavery that affects 20.9 million victims worldwide. Sex trafficking victims’ basic human rights are violated every day they are exploited. Traffickers, the men or women who sell their victims for personal gain, recruit and trick their victims into believing the two share a genuine relationship to create vulnerability in their victim. When the trafficker gains his or her victim’s trust, they reveal their true intentions, sometimes by blackmailing and torturing their target until the victim

The highly lucrative business of sex trafficking exist on both domestic and foreign lands (Shapkina 673). Those who control and are a part of the sex trafficking industry depend on the sexual exploitation of humans to make a profit. Though the sex trafficking business comprises of males and females, women are predominantly the ones targeted, making up 94% of confirmed cases (Shapkina 675). Though there are many reasons as to why a woman is sex trafficked, Shapkina provides examples relating to how economic immobility and homelessness, could lead to sexual exploitation (Shapkina 674). In the case of Nina, a sex traffic victim, her desire to improve her low-income status was unfortunately meet with a fraudulent employment opportunity that promised

Sex trafficking is one to the fastest growing crimes in globally and internationally and becoming more prominent. This crime affects million and millions of lives, mostly because victims want to leave their current country. According to (UNODC, 2016), sex trafficking is the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harboring or receipt of persons, by means of threat or use of forms of coercion, of abduction, of the abuse of power or of the giving or receiving of payments for the purpose of exploitation. Victims can be found anywhere rural, urban, suburban location, or on websites. There are many reasons why traffickers sell humans, but some are high demands and large profits. Naturally, most of us would not think that sex trafficking is happening right under our noses. But just think for a moment, a lot of the victims are exploited during major events held in different countries, the watching of pornographic movies and even the basic massages that many of us might enjoy.

People, in general, believe there is a trafficking issue but that it doesn’t apply to everywhere in the world. The smaller the county, the less of a problem people believe trafficking is but this is not the case. No matter where in the world or the size of the county trafficking is an issue everywhere. Without specific focus on informing students about the risks and reality of this issue in the world, students are being thrown into society unequipped to protect themselves and others from becoming sex slaves. This issue is not one that should be taken lightly.

Across the globe many countries’ governments are battling the epidemic crisis of sex trafficking. Sex trafficking can be defined as “a commercial sex act [that] is induced by force, fraud, or coercion, or in which the person induced to perform such act has not attained 18 years of age” (Laxalt 2012: 12). Although inhumane, many countries are taking part in the trafficking of people. This international trend has formed sex trafficking into “the second largest organized crime in the world” (Adler 2010: 357). Labor organizations estimate that there are “at least 2.4 million trafficked persons at any point in time” (ILO 2008: 1). With numbers like that, the ILO estimates that “annual profits generated from trafficking in human beings are as

It is were women who have been traffic become victims of the sex industry. Some women like Katia 23 years old from Odessa in Ukraine are aware that they are being recruited for prostitution; however they do not realize the abuse they are going to suffer from their traffickers. After escaping from sex trafficking she confessed in a documentary call “ Sex-slave” that she could not believe places like that actually existed. She said “ I thought I will find I least one kind person, or that one of the pimps would set me free” “ they did not see us as human being but just as whores, as flesh that they could use. That's all”. Even if women consent to prostitution they are still abused and severely traumatised by their “buyers”. They become victims of sex-trafficking because they are held prisoner and at the end forced into prostitutions. They can not stop or leave when they want. They are denied the most basic human rights , and in the worst case, they are denied their right to life. In order to attempt, to regulate and control such terrible activities and discontinue the suffering from victims of sexual-exploitation, international organisations such as the UN, OSCE ( the organisation for security and co-operation in Europe) and the Council of Europe have put protocols and specific laws into place . Since the mid-1990s European institutions have
