The struggle for human rights continues worldwide on a daily basis. Whether it's a struggle to prevent starvation in Africa, assert one's civil rights in the United States, or avoid torture in Latin America or Asia because of one's political opinion, these are all issues for Hate, Hope and Human Rights

Lifetime's Movie- Human Trafficking
There was a great movie on Lifetime this past Sunday called Human Trafficking. I wish I knew it was going to be on so I could have let our class know, I sort of just stumbled upon it. It was a 4-hour mini-series about the human trafficking in the United States. It shows how young women are manipulated into believing they will be traveling to the United States for various reasons, such as modeling, to meet a potential husband, or for work purposes. Once here they are forced into a van and enslaved. It was an excellent movie, I recommend anyone in our class to look it up and see when it will be playing again. There are some real parallels to what we are learning about in class.
