teejay Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 I have been in two minds whether to post this or not, but here goes anyway... There is a single released today on iTunes and Amazon called Twenty Seven Million, which is to raise awareness of the 27 million people currently being Human Trafficked. We currently have more people in slavery around the world than at any time in history, this single aims to raise awareness of the problem and to support an organisation on the front line fighting human trafficking. However, please be aware the single is written and recorded by a Christian recording artist and group, plus the A21 Campaign is a Christian based organisation, but they are ones who are taking the fight on, not trying to convert people. If you feel you can support this, then please buy the single on iTunes or Amazon. Some more info: The ‘Twenty Seven Million’ song looks to raise awareness for the anti-human trafficking movement. Together we could make some big noise about this important issue, and be a voice for the voiceless. Here are some of the facts: Human trafficking is an organised criminal activity that affects every nation. There are an estimated 27 million people on the earth today trapped in some form of modern day slavery. There are an estimated 1.39 million victims of commercial sexual servitude worldwide. Tragically, only 1-2% of victims are rescued. Remember every number is not just a statistic it represents the life of a victim.

elsiegee40 Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 Well done teejay For further information and statistics visit Welcome to the A21 Campaign Although in this neck of the woods the A21 Campaign is to try and get the stretch between Tonbridge and Pembury dualled as it's a notorious local bottleneck!
neilmc Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 I would like to Second Teejays post. Both me and my wife follow A21 and so do a few of my friends. Trafficking isn't just sex it also includes farming, the clothes we wear and the chocolate we eat, another great resource/charity and lots of information We Are Chapter One | Welcome to the online community which has been setup by a few people I know.
teejay Posted February 28, 2012 Author Posted February 28, 2012 Well done teejay Although in this neck of the woods the A21 Campaign is to try and get the stretch between Tonbridge and Pembury dualled as it's a notorious local bottleneck! LOL, I have driven that road many times as my parents lived in Pembury until a couple of years ago, small world
mac_shinobi Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 Not related to the single on itunes / amazon but there was a tv mini series in relation to human trafficking --> Human Trafficking (TV miniseries) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
