RISE UP for CHILDRENsteemCreated with Sketch.

in #news4 years ago

Yesterday my wife, a friend and I, attended a RISE UP rally/march in Gilbert, Arizona for World Day Against Trafficking.
The event organized by Operation Underground Railroad rallied around the Gilbert water tower in the hot desert weather to GET LOUD and RISE UP against Human Trafficking, with a focus on children.

While most of the world and the media would rather have you hypersensitive to anything COVID-19, hundred of thousands of children are being abducted and trafficked into slavery.

The United States of America leads the morbid number at around 460,000 missing a year. With 30,000 unaccompanied minors being apprehended along the U.S Southern border from between 2010 and 2018. This is just a drop in the bucket, as many countries have no tracking or means to report these cases.
