Human Trafficking: A Serious Issue In Their Community

Human trafficking has been a controversial issue for many years. There are different types of trafficking, which helps makes it a widely diverse issue. In Thailand, traffickers rely on the poor desperate people of other countries as well as their own to fulfill their needs financially, physically, and emotionally. Thailand has various reasons why they use human trafficking; sex exploitation, forced labor, and obtaining their organs for an organ transplant. Sex exploitation has been used by mainly men for a long time. They choose both women and children to violate, sometimes even men. The prettier the woman is the more she is worth. All men, woman, and children could be forced into labor. This varies from what the owner wants from them. People can also choose to go and work for them because they think this is their only way of making money, but they usually do not see much of it. Finally, others purchase them just for their organs. There are very long waiting lists on some organs, by the time one comes about the person in need of the organ has already passed away. There are a number of steps and reasons that are involved in human trafficking. With all of these issues of; sex exploitations, and forced labor, and organ trafficking, the trafficked can become physically and mentally injured.

27 million people all over the world are currently being forced into human trafficking or modern day slavery, 161 countries including the US will be affected by human trafficking. 1 million children will be exploited by the commercial sex trade each year. Sex trafficking began in the 1700s in the United States. It hasn’t been stopped because it continues to increase over the years. Even though the law enforcement and people around the world could be strong enough to stop human trafficking, I believe this situation needs to be more focused on and stopped as soon as possible. Because Human Trafficking is increasing rapidly and Oklahoma is a cross-way for sex trafficking due to the interstates such as I-35, I-40 and I-44.

Imagine being taken from the comfort of your house and family. Then envision that you are forced to either inject or ingest as drugs to give sexual pleasure to one person while the other reaps financial benefits. You are experiencing such atrocity at the same moment in which your loved ones are mourn your loss. Eventually, you are unrecognizable and affected by traumatizing experiences. The effects that you frequently feel are numb and now you are suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder. This is the reality that many endure on daily basis. It is caused by the constant practice of human trafficking.

Human trafficking is a worldwide problem that needs to be stopped before it gets out of hand. People all around the world are being abused physically and emotionally. There are many types of human trafficking, but two most known are sex trafficking and “human slavery”. Human trafficking is an issue that affects a wide range of people and the MN legislature should create harsher laws that make consequences for these actions by the time of 2019. Due to the issues of human trafficking it has become a problem that needs to be solved.

Human trafficking is a continuous issue in the United States. Trafficking affects millions of lives every day. This so called modern day slavery has become a complete inhumane activity. This practice is unfortunately as old as ancient times. We live in a society that knows little about trafficking and the amount of activity of this crime is still super alive today. Human trafficking is gaining momentum every day around the world but specifically in the United States. Human trafficking revolves around sexual and economic exploitation. This modern day model is based on competitiveness that stresses a supply and demand. In the past, slaves were caught by groups and held as a commodity. Today, poverty forces people that are socially vulnerable

"People were created to be loved, things were created to be used. The reason the world is in chaos is because things are being loved and people are being used". This is a statement by anonymous, and it is a statement that rings all too true for many adults and children being used in human trafficking. Human trafficking is a topic that too many in society ignore, and it is arguably that ignorance that serves as a bigger conundrum than the topic itself. Human trafficking, also known as slavery, is when humans are sold to the highest bidder at an auction or used in businesses as slaves, and all too often these slaves are used for sexual purposes. Roughly 79% of slaves are sexually exploited according to The United Nations Protocol against Trafficking in Persons. Dictionary. Reference defines a sex slave as a person who is forced into prostitution and held against their will. Sex trafficking is a major issue around the globe, for no matter how diverse cultures may seem they all share the common horror of sex slavery which results in grave violations in human rights. Being a global problem that creates a common factor in nearly all cultures, one would expect humanity to be able to spot the sign of a slave or even know what’s going on and help solve the crisis, but conversely people have shunned the topic of slavery and try not to even think about it. How ignorant people have become is the real problem, for if more people were aware of the issue then more people would be willing

Sex trafficking, the act of an adult committing a commercial sex act with a minor, is a worldwide crisis, that around 4.5 million people have been forced into (Elrod and “What is Sex Trafficking?”). The trauma induced by traffickers can alter the psychological state of an individual forced into the business. Preventative measures being taken by the government to decrease the growing industry have proven to be effective, although more needs to be done. Human trafficking affects society, abductors, and victims, therefore the government is actively attempting to extinguish the issue with legislation.

Human trafficking is a deplorable crime that destroys lives, leads to increased crime, and ruins economies of communities around the world. The state of Nevada is a miniscule, but growing part of a global epidemic that exploits women and children in many third world countries through sexual tourism, prostitution, and sexual activities too graphic to discuss. Sex traffickers have been thriving in third world communities for decades, but now this underworld business has made it’s way to the shores of America and all the way to the great state of Nevada. Until recently, this worldwide problem has received little or no attention from most world governments. Many have looked the other way because the problem has not pertained to them personally,

Similar to social workers our local police department must be equipped and trained to handle sensitive issues of human trafficking. Most trafficked women are sex slaves and confused as prostitutes, so instead of feeling like they have been saved victims they are dehumanized and arrested. The importance of educating law enforcement is to get rid of the stigma that all women willfully participate in prostitution, which is not true at all. If these officers have training they would be able to better identify victims. In the quantitative study conducted the participants were asked Q3: How does police understanding of human trafficking influence the ways the police identify and investigate these crimes? According to A. Farrell et al, he found that

Worldwide close to twelve million people are victims of human trafficking. Of these twelve million, roughly 14,500 are brought to the United States per year, from other countries (Orlando). Human trafficking has two variations, international and domestic. International trafficking can be forced child labor or prostitution, whereas domestic is, for the most part, child prostitution (Levy). Women and children from all over the world are taken off the streets and forced to become something most people could hardly comprehend, a slave. Human trafficking is not from one source and because of this, one solution cannot fix modern-day slavery. Human trafficking has been in the United States from the conception of the nation; human trafficking is not a problem that will go away if ignored. Modern slavery is an issue in the United States, and if this problem is to ever be eradicated the citizens of this nation must fight against human trafficking.

Human Trafficking is something that goes around all over the world. In this essay I will discuss what human trafficking is, how it is done and give three countries who are mainly known for this kind of inhuman act. The three countries are countries that are vey much known and are known as Bangladesh, Brazil and Ghana. All three countries are known for tourism so human trafficking is expected to be in act, especially if its over populated and having different people from different countries coming in and out. Human Trafficking is not something that should be promoted or celebrated and should be put to a stop. It is not fair for people to be taken against their will from their families and friends. Men, women, and even kids are being taken, so a person should never just think they’re special if not caught they are blessed instead. Human trafficking is sickening and a disgrace to every nation and country possible.

Human rights are something that everyone receives as soon as they are born in the world. These rights are given to everyone just for simply living on the earth no matter their race, sex, religion, or ethnicity. When someone tries to take one of those rights away it is called a human rights violation. A right that is interesting is the Right to Freedom. Something that violates the Right to Freedom is human trafficking, which also violates the 13th Amendment which abolished slavery in 1865, with the help of Abraham Lincoln. Human trafficking can be used for many different things such as torture, forced labor, sexual diminuendos, organ removal and debt bondage, all of these resulting in the profit of money. The use of humans for money is

2,880. That’s how many children are taken away from their families each day. That’s 2,880 eighty children who should be playing outside and enjoying childhood. Instead they are torn from everything they know and forced into slavery, sometimes to never come out. Slavery was not fully abolished in 1865. Over 27 million men, women, and children are enslaved at this very moment (“The Cost of Coercion”). That number is close to the population of Florida and Georgia combined who would be enslaved today. What most people today call “modern-day slavery” is the illegal trade of human beings for forced labor and exploitation; referring to using others for sexual exploitation, organ trafficking, and forced labor. This international crime is

Human Trafficking is defined in Article 3 of the United Nations (UN)’s Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, as “the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harbouring or receipt of persons, by means of the threat or use of force or other forms of coercion, of abduction, of fraud, of deception, of the abuse of power or of a position of vulnerability or of the giving or receiving of payments or benefits to achieve the consent of a person having control o5ver another person, for the purpose of exploitation.”
