Aaron Cohen, "The Slave Hunter," helps set slaves free

Here's a video of hope and freedom from Aaron Cohen and his organization, abolishslavery.org. Aaron was featured on CNN last week and recently published his book "Slave Hunter" with Christine Buckley. As I've said before, becoming aware of modern slavery can be disheartening and depressing. But we have to remember that there's hope and people are being freed one slave at a time.

This video gives you that glimmer of hope and as you see the joy of people who are freed. Love and hope must be our motivator in this work.


AUTHOR'S INVITATION:

Everyone I talk to about modern slavery agrees it's atrocious. Then they ask, "What can I do?" BE A VOICE. Spread awareness by sharing these posts and videos with others. Collectively we can reach thousands of people. Creating awareness and making this an issue in the public mind WILL lead to CHANGE.

Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.
~Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Will you accept my invitation? Will you be a voice?

Thank you,
John Burger
