Hello everyone, I hope all is well with you. I’m back today after a busy week of work and some writing. I feel like I’m ready to put my story together. I’ve been working on the structure and plot, and it has finally come together nicely. Cross your fingers for me!
But enough about that. Today, I want to talk about a movie I saw with my sister and mother. It’s titled, “The Sound of Freedom.” It was an eye-opening story.
It’s the story of a brother and sister who get stolen from their family and kidnapped by human traffickers. It’s the story of an FBI agent who quit his job to save these children. Over 1.2 million children are sold into slavery every year. These children work in mines, farms, and in industrial factories as well as the sex industry.
According to the movie, the United States is the biggest contributor to these staggering numbers.
When I learned that, it turned my stomach. It seems that sixty percent of children who are trafficked each year come from the foster care system. This is so sad. Our children are our number one valuable resource, and we’re selling them into child labor.
This movie has shown what one man can accomplish when he sets his mind to it. I believe if we had more people involved in stopping this horrendous activity, we’d be able to stop this.
If you can get out and see this movie, I strongly recommend it. I’m looking for ways to stop this horrible industry. Do you have any ideas? Leave a comment, I’d love to hear from you!
