I was here. I’m in this video. You don’t literally see me, but I’m physically here. I’m to the left of the stage.

27 million.

There are 27 million people in this world who are enslaved in some way, shape, or form. Yet most of us still sit here consumed in ourselves so unwilling to open our eyes and see what is going on around us. We’re so unwilling to look at the world around us and comprehend that there are other human beings suffering from things they have no control over, and we have the power to help them. Yet we do not. We sit here consumed in ourselves and in our lives and in our ignorance and in our arrogance. Someone else will help them. Why should it be me? I have my own problems to deal with. I have to use my money for things that concern me. I have to use my time for things that concern me. And then those people die, helpless and hopeless- because no one was there for them, and they couldn’t be there for themselves.

You all are a “society all about equality.” Or are you just a society all about equality of sexual orientation?

Do you think that people who are being sex trafficked are lovingly sex trafficked?

Doubt it.

I’m sure they are bullied big time by their “pimps.” (That is what the men are called who traffic the women and children in for sex.)

Does that matter as much to you as it does to see people who may have a different sexual orientation get harassed by the mean kids at school?

27 million people enslaved in some way. What are you going to do about it?
