BE INFORMED about this horrific global injustice; awareness is key.

“Human trafficking can only work if the victims remain invisible to the public eye, we have to remove the veil of ignorance.”

READ

Not for Sale, David Batstone
Not for Sale is an introduction to today’s world-wide slave trade. Stories are told of modern day abolitionists who, individually or in cooperation with agencies, use their influence and abilities to help free these captives. The authors come from both secular and faith-based venues and are inspired by a dedication to love and justice. Batstone urges his readers to become personally responsible by participating in the preservation of human freedom.

On the Side of the Angels, Dr. Joseph D’Souza and Benedict Rogers
On the Side of the Angels lends a Biblical perspective to pressing human rights issues and the responsibility of Christians to affirm human dignity, human equality and human responsibility. The book’s underlying theme is that Christ calls His followers to an integrated mission of proclaiming the Good News and addressing issues of social injustice. Only by striking this balance will they be truly obeying Christ’s teachings.

Slavery Now and Then, Danny Smith
In Slavery Now and Then the editor, Danny Smith, has gathered articles on human trafficking from some of today’s leading human rights authorities. These range from the history of the transatlantic slave trade to the continuation today of modern slavery. Beginning with the thesis that “justice is at the very heart of the message of Jesus,” the book concludes by listing sources that will help the reader take action.
