As you say every little bit helps and passing on information has to help and is very necessary too, very sad reality but needs to be out there. I will certainly help, <br />Thank you Jenny, Judithann xxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-28308035673443910152014-05-10T08:27:37.022+10:002014-05-10T08:27:37.022+10:00A recent case in the US highlighted this problem c...A recent case in the US highlighted this problem clearly in a suburban neighborhood where no one was aware, for 10 years. We all wonder, how can this be? During the run up to the Superbowl Game (American football biggest game after the regular season.) It is supposedly the biggest opportunity for the sex slave trade of the year! People are transported into the host city to act as slaves. Disgusting. I could not even watch the game this year after hearing this. By exposing the problems and supporting the movement to expose this abhorrent behavior we hope to draw attention to the problem. Multiple print and television public service ads were developed to attempt to draw those in captivity into a safe place. Quite frankly it seems to be an overwhelming task. What ever attention we can provide is good. Thanks for highlighting this travesty on your blog.celkaleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00641540970773683454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-49323274450928775832014-05-10T08:01:16.728+10:002014-05-10T08:01:16.728+10:00Wow!

Christine has spoken at some of Joyce Meyers conferences and on her shows, but I haven't heard her speak on this. I know that Joyce has her "Hand of Hope" that helps in this area as well as other areas. Thanks for taking a stand, and making a way for more people to get involved in being part of the answer. I will look forward to your blocks and a chance to donate. <br />Still working on Daisy Days - thanks for the label. Have a Blessed weekend.

He actually wrote a very interesting piece on facebook about the new movie "Belle" <br />Always a bit of a warning when a film is "based" on or "inspired" by a true story.<br />Nevertheless, it looks interesting as it is in part the story of the legal case about the slave ship Zong, which when it was in trouble threw slaves overboard and claimed the insurance for loss of goods. <br />Which brings me to one of my heroes. The legal case inspired the Chancellor of Cambridge University to base the Latin Essay Prize that year on it. Thomas Clarkson, the writer of the winning essay was so scandalised that it changed the course of his life setting him of the path of abolition of the slave trade and challenging people like William Wilberforce to progress the cause through parliament. It was Clarkson who did much of the research into the trade riding thousands of miles to visit every port in England and gather the facts about slavery. <br />Anyway, I am guessing he will not be a part of this particular movie though he featured in Amazing Grace.<br />If anyone sees Belle in the next little while let me know what you think.

When my eldest was still in Primary School, she was involved with a charity group that aided one of the local centres who deal with this horrendous issue....we need to educate not only the adults but our children to this reality as this can strike at any family...even thoughpeople seem to think it's restricted to those in poor and destitute circumstances. I'll be popping over to A21 to read up a bit more about them. As with anything, if we put our heads and hearts together, we can achieve monumental things.

Emma Thompson's campaign and the her famous you tube depiction of a trafficked woman forced to work in the sex trade, had a profound effect on me. I've always felt helpless, not knowing what I could do to help stop this horrendous trade. Thank you so much for this further information. I will certainly follow it up, donate and see what else I can do. We all need to speak out about terrible injustice.Melodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18439426900538969302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-73919107489081859472014-05-09T14:15:42.866+10:002014-05-09T14:15:42.866+10:00Thanks Kaylee...when I heard about it, then read m...Thanks Kaylee...when I heard about it, then read more, I felt so overwhelmed. Like, what could I do? But I think it's about everyone doing a little that makes up a whole lot in the big picture. It's a fact that they need money to rescue and rehabilitate these precious lives, and hopefully we together can raise some during the 26 weeks of my free BOW. xxJenny of Elefantzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02775654415138120426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-54543570803420408342014-05-09T14:11:14.192+10:002014-05-09T14:11:14.192+10:00WOW that's amazing Jenny, I certainly had no i...WOW that's amazing Jenny, I certainly had no idea.
