This class opened my eyes to the realities of human trafficking and how deep vulnerabilities like poverty fuel it. After this semester, I’m committed to supporting ethical businesses and organizations and spreading awareness. #ucendsslavery @weller_world

I found it powerful that Joya/FreeSet USA moves directly into vulnerable neighborhoods, living alongside the community to build trust and real change from within them. #ucendsslavery @joyya_worlds

Hearing Ryan Berg from the Aruba Project share how survivors are “broken” in tiny boxes before being trafficked was heart breaking. Only 23% of women rescued stay free long-term, showing how hard it is to break the cycle without deeper support. #ucendsslavery @ArunaProject

I learned from Anthony Russell’s Peace Corps experience that multi-factor approaches like GLOW and BRO camps are key to addressing complex issues like gender-based violence and HIV. Empowering communities with knowledge leads to long term change. #ucensslavery

I found it interesting from the Restavek Freedom presentation that the they not only rescue kids from modern slavery in Hati, they also prevent it by teaching adult job skills and ways to fight poverty. #ucendsslavery

In the Restavek Freedom presentation I learned that it was once a communal care practice in Africa, but in Haiti it was mutated into a modern-day slavery due to its poverty. It was hard to learn that it then became a tragic cycle that stole many childhoods. #ucendsslavery

In the Path Appears documentary I found it interesting that they talked about how between 2000-2006, 3200 U.S soldiers died in Afghanistan & Iraq. Comparing that number to the 4x the number of women who died from domestic violence. @APathAppears #ucendsslavery

In the Path Appears documentary I found it interesting that in the U.S, 1 in 7 young people will run away between the ages of 10-18. It was also found that 75% of them are girls. This showed a high risk for sex trafficking and exploitation. @APathAppears #ucendsslavery

From John Oliver’s Episode I learned that the scammers behind Pig Butchering don’t ask for money directly, they create fake investment opportunities. A bank CEO was tricked by a pig butcher which led to the collapse of his own bank. @LastWeekTonight @iamjohnoliver #ucendslavery

From the John Oliver:Last Week Tonight Episode I learned that many scammers prey on vulnerable people by forming fake emotional bonds. In just the US alone over $3 billion has been lost annually to Pig Butchering Scams. @LastWeekTonight @iamjohnoliver #ucendslavery

I learned from Veronica Scherbauer that Ohios Human Trafficking Task Force works to address both sex and labor trafficking trafficking equally, and that victims can be found in both legitimate and illegitimate businesses across Ohio. @Ohio_OCJS #ucendslavery

From the conversation with Kevin Bales I learned how the British navy fought the transatlantic slave trade for more than 40 years, sacrificing to free thousands of lives, yet he shared this is rarely told in our history. #ucendslavery @rightsbeacon

I learned more from Kevin Bales through his experience in Nepal working with religious leader and law makers to pass a law against slavery. It was a hopeful yet tragic lesson and what happens when laws aren’t fully prepared. #ucendslavery @rightsbeacon

I found that Ten Thousand Villages celebrates culture by selling unique and handmade goods that reflect on many traditions. I learned that it is more than just a business, it’s about honoring diversity and creating a lasting change. #ucendslavery @Villages

I learned how Ten Thousand Villages empowers artisans through fair trade and helping families out of poverty by providing fair wages and sustainable work. This focuses on long term relationship la and not just the quick sales. #ucendslavery @Villages

I learned that human trafficking is not just a crime, but is also a huge health issue that affects many people for generations. To help stop these health issues we need to focus on fixing poverty, abuse, and mental health. #ucendslavery @collabtoendht

I learned trafficking doesn’t always involve an abduction. Traffickers can also be subtle by manipulating individuals. It is often more complex than then the typical “kidnapping” image many may have. #ucendslavery @collabtoendht
