Human Trafficking

Human Trafficking is the illegal selling and buying of people, whether to buy their services or them illegally or buy them for child labour. There are many different ways these people come into human trafficking, some are sold by their families due to a debt needed to be paid or a loan taken out, some are kidnapped, there are so many different ways these people are stripped of their rights and freedom. There is a story of a woman named Hope, who was kidnapped by sex traffickers after she posted on social media that she hated her mother. A woman messaged her back saying Hope could stay with her and within 45 minutes Hope was gone. She was forced into a hotel room where she was beaten, drugged and forced into prostitution. This is merely an example but in so many ways Hope's freedom and rights were torn away from her. Human trafficking is a violation, of rights, of freedom and of the peace that is being so desperately fought for in our world.
