I am helping to end slavery


I’ve submitted my intention to help end slavery on the UN’s 7 Billion Actions website, and you can check it out here.

“On a holiday to the US last year, I made a stop at the Civil Rights Museum in Memphis. For the first time, I really learnt about African American slavery, emancipation and abolition, and was floored by all the brave men and women who fought to change the way things were. Inspired, I came home and was determined to learn about modern day slavery, which I’d briefly heard about. I’ve since held a fundraiser at my workplace, which raised $400 towards FreeTheSlaves.net. I’m currently working on a video to promote awareness of the issue. Sadly, slavery today is as prolific as ever.”
