human trafficking persuasive speech

Today’s slavery is one of the most diabolical strains to emerge in the thousands of years in which humans have been enslaving their fellows. In the modern global society, there are not just only one kind of human race that specifically victim of human traffic, today it come in all races, all types, and all ethnicities, which became the “Equal Opportunity Slavery” that Bales and Soodalter were mentioned in their book, The Slave Next Door. It is proving itself to be worse than the Trans-Atlantic Slave trade that historically took place from the 1500s to the 1800s.

Although all this documents stress voices from the Slave Trade, each document sheds a unique light on the much-debated question about who should be held responsible for the tragedy of the Atlantic slave trade. For example, Document 15.1 sheds light on the role of both European and African merchants in the trafficking of slaves as well as the human suffering of the slave trade. However Document 15.2 reveals the cooperation between local African rulers and European and African traders in the slave trade. Moreover, Documents 15.3 focus on how disruptive European traders could be to established African governments, even those that actively opposed the slave trade. And finally, Document 15.4 shows how some African leaders were attached to the slave trade and promoted it even when European were moving to end it. Nonetheless, all the documents do shed a clear and a full light on what should be held responsible for the

For more than three and a half centuries, the forcible bondage of at least twelve million men, women, and children from their African homelands to the Americas forever changed the face and character of the western hemisphere. The slave trade was brutal and horrific, and the enslavement of Africans was cruel, exploitative, and dehumanizing. The trade represented one of the longest and most sustained assaults on the life, integrity, and dignity of human beings in world history.

“The Slave Ship: A Human History” written by Marcus Rediker describes the horrifying experiences of Africans, and captains, and ship crewmen on their journey through the Middle Passage, the water way in the Atlantic Ocean between Africa and the Americas. The use of slaves to cultivate crops in the Caribbean and America offered a great economy for the European countries by providing “free” labor and provided immense wealth for the Europeans. Rediker describes the slave migration by saying, “There exists no account of the mechanism for history’s greatest forced migration, which was in many ways the key to an entire phase of globalization” (10). African enslavement to the Americas is the most prominent reason for a complete shift in the

When we hear the terms “slave” or “slave trade” the first thing that comes to mind is African Americans. Slave trade a term taught often in history classes has a meaning that has now become synonymous with African American. There term trade summons up images of exchanging goods for service. The sad truth is that this has not become a common sequence, almost like a math equation whose answer is always African American. Some useful ways to talk about slave trade is by restoring humanity to the millions who died under the racial global order. By referring to slave trade as “european slave trade” we are able to disconnect the word african from slave trade however, it gives the audience the wrong idea concerning the awful things these people went through. We need to bring humanity back to the name of the African Americans.

One of my all time favorite musicals as I was growing up was alway Annie, about a sweet little orphan who through determination and a little positivity found a better life. But has happened to orphans nowadays, you don’t exactly drive by your neighborhood orphanage on your way to work. It seems that these children have disappeared, virtually falling off the face of the earth. Today they are called foster kids with families like my own housing them. The early foster system was established in the 1500s in order to care for children who were removed from their parents. Foster care was intended to be a short-term solution until the child is either adopted or reunited with their family. However, the average child will spend over two years waiting to be adopted. But the flaws in this system run much deeper, from mental disorders all the way to human trafficking. Human trafficking through the foster system is a dire problem that can not be neglected. We will examine this today by looking at three points; recognizing what the problem, understanding the pressure that they are under, and finally how you and i can help provide the promise of a new life

What’s the word that describes someone who thinks that the world revolves around them? Self-centered? Egocentric? Narcissist? Vain? Self-seeking? Selfish? Hm. Is that too harsh? We live in society today where we are only concerned about ourselves. Somehow, we have adopted the mentality that life revolves strictly around me and what I want. We are so consumed with ourselves that we have totally forgotten about the thousands of people who struggle every day for their life. Who are these people that I am talking about? The people who are promised a better life but instead are trapped into this terrible system where they are forced to do things they never knew about. This system is called Human trafficking. Today, I would like to convince you that this world does not revolve around you.

The Day my God Died video opened up my eyes to how serious human trafficking is. Human trafficking is a horrible getting brought to a place where you have been sold for sex will never be a good experience. Not only are the women having problems on top of that the STI’s that spread are scary. I have picked one people from the video. Who gives you an inside look on human trafficking.

On a large scale millions of people go missing every year. Children and adults, all a vast range of age, race, and sex are taken. Most do not even know that they are gone. Every year large amounts of people who have gone missing are forced into human trafficking. Human trafficking is a form of modern slavery, where traffickers control other people and coheres them into doing what they wish. Those being trafficked experience extenuous hours of hard labor, sexual exploitation, and other horrific acts that only benefit the cruel and sadistic people that objectify and use them. In order to end the suffering of the innocent, for the sake of the people, future victims, and their families a proposal to microchip the entire population and sentence anyone who is found trafficking to death must be put into effect as soon as humanly possible to ensure the safety of all.

Finally, survivors have proposed serious measures for change, as well as the eradication of human trafficking. It continues to be the fastest growing illegal industry in the United States. Indeed, it may be profitable, but capitalism does not justify the crimes against humanity. U.S. Secretary of State, John Kerry emphasized, “money may be able to buy a lot of things, but it should never, ever be able to buy another human being.”

The documentary immediately seizes the audience’s attention by broadcasting a series of protests, voicing the pain of a brutal rape case that resulted in the death of a young woman. Clearly, the viewers can assume the news of this case was the tipping point of the tired citizens who longed for justice, and sparked a demand for reformed laws and a change of the culture’s mindset. Radha travels to Delhi to experience what it feels like to be a woman in India head on. She documents the newspapers overflown with sexual violence cases that vary in extremities; the newspapers alone present the severity of the rampant mistreatment flooding the streets and homes in India. She meets with an array of girls who have suffered

We keep our eyes blind and our hearts locked when it comes to the murky side of life. We tend to want to live positive upbeat lives, we tell ourselves positive thinking makes for a positive life. We would much rather forget that the world is really a wretched abyss which Satan has made his playground.

When we think of prostitution, what comes to mind? Do you envision scantily dressed women, leaning into a car windows or waiting on curbs? Maybe your mind reels with disgust at the thought of whores, tramps, and sluts. How low do you have to be to sell yourself, right? Or, perhaps, you see them for what they truly are; one of nearly 30 million human slaves, sold into a life they never wanted in the first place. Glorified by shows and media, the entire aspect of disease, rape, and pedophila is overlooked for the sake of ratings. However, I believe using tactics of education, prevention, and protection, society as a whole can finally put an end to this gross violation of human rights.
