Check out justicecantwait.org to see how Trump’s SCOTUS allies have chosen delay at every turn.

Whether or not SCOTUS hands down its decision in Trump’s immunity case this morning, one thing is clear: a majority has already shielded him from accountability for Jan 6 and assisted his 2024 electoral prospects. Here’s my @MeidasTouch explainer: youtu.be/DUxleQzmkMo?si…

Approximately 80% of Nigerian women in Dubai end up performing forced sex work. They are lured under the false promise of legitimate employment. Once in the UAE, the victims face unimaginable horrors -and are subject to threats, violence and debt bondage slavery. #SendThemHome is on mission to break the silence on these illicit networks within the UAE: sendthemhome.co.uk

. @speedlighters joins the @CHR_HumanRights, University of Pretoria “Africa Rights Talk” podcast to discuss his experiences supporting survivors of human trafficking. During the podcast episode, Angus shares how a chance encounter with a Nigerian woman in 2019 revealed to him the dark and hidden world of human trafficking. Since then, Angus has dedicated his career to rescuing and repatriating African women who have been trafficked to the UAE, and protecting at-risk communities through education and awareness. Listen to the full podcast in to hear Angus share insights on how the UAE continues to turn a blind eye to the issue, and how we can all play a part in eliminating #humantrafficking africarightstalk.podbean.com/e/s6-e3-breaki… #SendThemHome #StopHumanTrafficking

“Victims are always recruited by people in positions of trust.” - Angus Thomas, Founder of sendthemhome.co.uk #SendThemHome Once victims arrive in the UAE, they typically have their travel documents taken away. They’re told they owe their traffickers a debt in return for arranging their new job and travel - debt bondage. Victims must repay this "debt", usually around $10,000 for a victim of sex trafficking, before they can leave.

“They’ve set themselves out to be a cook and they go out there and are sexually exploited. Even if they were rescued, they then come home with no money in their pocket.’ - @speedlighters, Founder of #SendThemHome. The shame of being sexually exploited is a tool used by human traffickers to further control and exploit the women they deceive.

In Dubai, the glittering heart of the UAE, women who have been trafficked from around the world are manipulated and forced into sex work. Many of these women must seek clients in the city’s lavish hotels where staff and management turn a blind eye. hospitalitynet.org/opinion/411872…

Ghanaian women from the rural northern regions are increasingly moving to urban centres, seeking work as porters. Here, they are exposed to sexual exploitation. The Hope Education pilot project aims to teach women and girls how to spot the warning signs of trafficking, learn how to keep themselves and each other safe and where to report violations: hopeeducationproject.org
