Amazing Grace<\/a><\/p>\nThis is an amazing movie and I commend it to you. I urge you look around the website. I urge you understand the conditions against which the abolitionists in England fought to end this terrible trade in human lives. And I urge that you remember in this the 200th anniversary of the passage of abolition in England, that the slave trade has not yet ended.<\/p>\n
According to the New York Times, ” Upwards of 18,000 foreign nationals are believed to be trafficked into the U.S. each year. According to the State Department, 80 percent of trafficked people are women and children, an overwhelming majority of whom are trafficked for sexual purposes.<\/p>\n
Those who think that most of the women in prostitution want to be there are deluded. Surveys consistently show that a majority wants very much to leave. Apologists love to spread the fantasy of the happy hooker. But the world of the prostitute is typically filled with pimps, sadists, psychopaths, drug addicts, violent criminals and disease.”<\/p>\n
And if this is so, in this the freest of all lands, what then must it be like for these poor little ones in places where their lives are not so valued? This is a fight that has not ended. Yet must. It MUST. This is one more dirty little secret upon which the light of love must be brought. It is time the entire population of our world lives free. The time is upon us and the time is now. Please keep this issue in mind as we enter the 2008 campaign season. American freedom is not, cannot be, just for Americans. Love demands freedom be equally shared. Please support candidates and parties which make ending this horrific business part of their platform. And insist YOUR local candidates do so. much love, :^) gene<\/p>\n
