Abstract
Our presentation focuses on human labor and commercial sex trafficking in the United States. Our own citizens are a part of human trafficking either as victims or traffickers here on U.S. soil and abroad. Also known as the “modern day slavery”, this is a global business that is thriving and does exist. Although there are many efforts being made to combat trafficking there is still confusion as to what trafficking is, where it takes place, and who is involved. The more U.S citizens who become informed of the truth of this horrific crime the more likely trafficking can be stopped.
