First of all, sorry for not posting a TED Talk last week. I honestly forgot and just never got around to doing it. My apologies.

I am posting this TED Talk because I think it's timely. We have gotten so comfortable in our lives with all the new technology, the creature comforts and this false sense of being ever so informed. In the background of economic strife and celebrity culture is the murmur of sex trafficking, modern day slavery and it makes me stop and think are we as a people really taking note. Do we, as a people, feel anything. This speaker expressed what we do in a very clear, precise way and ask us to do the one thing we should have been doing all the time. Treat those who are victims of these terrible acts as the people that they are.

Sunitha Krishnan has dedicated her life to rescuing women and children from sex slavery, a multimilion-dollar global market. In this courageous talk, she tells three powerful stories, as well as her own, and calls for a more humane approach to helping these young victims rebuild their lives.
