Call + Response

There is a new documentary that has just recently been released about the slave trade. I found an article about it on CNN.com a few weeks ago. The documentary is called "Call + Response" and it is directed by a man named Justin Dillon. The documentary features video taken undercover in different locations that are involved in the sex trade. The CNN clip gave a UN statistic that estimated around 12.3 million people have been forced into lives of forced sexual slavery.

The documentary features people such as former secretary of state, Madeline Albright, and New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof. The film clip from CNN offers solutions from the documentary. Two of these are to rehabilitate the victims that have gone through this. Also an interesting one was to target the traffickers and help them to find a different source of income. The documentary calls for people interested in helping to take action. Possible ways are to visit the website and donate monetarily, or participate in their slave free initiative.
