Human Trafficking

   Reading the article about human trafficking by Owen Weldon was very breath taking. I wasn't aware that so many people owned slaves today. I think that the idea of human trafficking is cruel and unfair. Im pretty sure that most of the slaves being held to work don't want to do what they are forced to do.
   I think that it is great that google is giving millions of dollars to stop human trafficking."There are currently 27 million children,  women and men are held in slavery." I thought that we were done with slavery a long time ago. I don't understand why this is still going on. The number of slaves is way to high to even be true, people are forced to work for others that probably don't even care for them. Hopefully the money google just gave will make a huge impact on human trafficking because i'm sure if we were in their shoes we would want human trafficking to decrease.
   Imagine you were  little girl  in africa just minding your own and you get kidnapped. you are helpless alone and scared wishing you weren't in this position. Now your being sold in the sex trade. No one wants to be in this position and unfortunately many people are.
