"To break this problem, people must become aware of what is happening to these children. They are taken away from their families, ship around the world, and pushed into prostitution with no means of fighting back."

 

Black History Month: Are We All Free?

Op-Ed by Pamela J. Hudson, Executive Director
Global Projects for Hope, Help and Healing


DETROIT - Interestingly enough, this is designated as Black History Month universally. We all know history among Black people is made everyday and one month cannot capture the contribution we have made to this nation and the world.

As one who is involved with the modern day slavery known as human trafficking of women and children, I must ask the question, are any of us free when there are over 27 million placed in bondage through labor trafficking, sexual trafficking or exploitation of children around the globe?

Can we who have acquired access to a system that initially denied our human rights forget about those who are taken off our city streets, transported across borders, countries, or states? Are we to rest on our laurels and commit this to others and turn our head from the horrific act of enslaving another for profit? I think not!

The work of my non-profit organization, Global Projects for Hope, Help and Healing is to offer to those trapped in this life hope with a program, Passport to A New Life. Our spiritually based program is designed to touch and transform lives of those who need a renewed sense of self and identity.

Global Projects has since 2005 internationally been combating this atrocity. Now we are setting our sites on combating human trafficking domestically in the state of Michigan, city of Detroit and its region.

I would hope that to those to whom much has been given (liberty and freedom) we will not rest until the estimated 27 million slaves around the world are free. Living without physical, emotional, mental bondage of belonging to someone without choice or self-rule. Let us not forget our past or ignore the present when 2/3 of sex trafficked children suffer at the hands of traffickers.

Learn what you can about this crime against mankind. Join your voice and skills to make a difference either in talking, writing, speaking, volunteering but be a voice for change.

If you are in the Michigan area join the Michigan Rescue and Restore Coalition which was launched by our nonprofit on January 25, 2011. Together we can eradicate slavery in the 21st century. Together we can raise public awareness, educate the community and equip the people to identify and eliminate this threat to our women and children.

Let's let freedom truly ring in our lifetime.

     The work as Project Director asks of me to stay abreast of latest information and pass it on. Sharing truth that will set someone free from ignorance and bondage, is a reward in itself.
