On the heels of National Human Trafficking Awareness Month, the Shoreline Community College Global Affairs Center partner – World Affairs Council – is presenting a talk Thursday, Feb. 19 at 7:30 p.m. on the factors of human trafficking from a local and global perspective.
Despite launching an impressive and large-scale awareness campaign last year, the number of individuals being trafficked in King County remains high. At this event, a screening of the 30-minute documentary “Not My Life” will highlight true stories of human trafficking and shine a light on this modern day form of slavery.
Following the film, a panel discussion will give local context to the issue and offer concrete steps we can all take to combat this humanitarian crisis in our midst. Panelists include:
Jane Charles, StolenYouth board member and producer of the film SOLD
Nature Carter, survivor and advocate against human trafficking
Peter Qualliontine, co-founder of the Organization for Prostitution Survivors
Alex Sum, Human Rights Society (moderator)
