This is such an important topic and so often overlooked in our society. Thanks for bringing it to light; you probably helped save several lives along the way. Blessings.

This is one of your most important interviews.

This idea of a wordless book is so revolutionary.

I hope that Diana is not going to neglect the US schools in her endeavor.

One of the principal places for human trafficing is any Greyhound bus terminal in a major city.

Pimps patrol those to find young women who are mostly runaways and offer support. They usually arrive with nothing.

I met many of these women in a program I volunteered to do with the Chicago courts.
They were arrested for prostitution. If they are not already hooked on drugs when they arrive, these pimps make sure they are.

Then they are in bondage to these men who are the only game in town for them. They are not only supposed to bring the money home but supply them with drugs too. It is a never ending circle of abuse.

Why don’t they just leave? To go where? Most have little education. The social service agencies try to help but so many programs have been cut.

You don’t have to go outside your own city in the US to see trafficing.
