Slavery thrives in the rug loom sheds of Nepal; the sex-slavery brothels of
Manila, Thailand, Japan and the U.S.; the water-carrier chattel in Mauritania;
the charcoal-making camps of Brazil; child prostitution in Ecuador; and child
camel-jockey riding for the wealthy Sheikhs in United Arab Emirates, Saudi
Arabia, Kuwait and Qatar. Migrant trafficking exists for sexual labor
throughout visa-free Canadian borders and into the U.S.A. Slavery exists in the
garment manufacturing sweatshops of Los Angeles and New York, in the numerous
sex clubs of St. Paul and Minneapolis, or domestic servitude in the wealthiest
homes in Paris, London, Los Angeles and Washington, D.C., just to name a
few.
Sex Slavery: Astonishingly, people can really buy and sell women and children and get away
with it. Induced by force, fraud, coercion, and imprisonment,
sex slavery
is the fastest growing and most hideous form of modern day human
bondage. Former Austrian figure skating champion Wolfgang Schwartz was
sentenced in 2002 for trafficking women from Eastern Europe to Austria for
forced prostitution. Sex slavery is growing fastest in Central and
Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. Several billions of dollars are paid
and made through sexual exploitation such as forced prostitution, strip and lap
dancing, pedophilia, ephebophilia, homosexuality, and the production of
pornography by organized crime rings, gangsters, pimps, corrupt government
officials and law enforcement ranks. This criminal and immoral activity
results in the physical, mental, and spiritual abuse of millions of women and
children each year worldwide. And, yes, even in these United States.
