This site does a great job at educating in hopes to eliminate the existence and growth of sex trafficking around the world but specifically in the United States. The short clip emphasizes that this is a growing problem and that if it doesn't stop expanding that it will eventually hit home.

Powerful clip, a sure slap of reality. This does an amazing job of eliciting the desire to change society, in particular human trafficking but on a broader scale violence against women. I wish this clip could be more broad casted in every day life as it hits all the "high points" of the issue in a very effective way.

Sex trafficking is one of the other issues that should be spoken about more often, like the website informs "if it is not stopped you will be effected". I feel like this is effective because of the films that this organization has created. They have documented these stories so that people can get upset and do something about it. I agree with them because we don't get uncomfortable enough which leads us to look the other way and pay little attention to problems like sex trafficking.

This book looks at the policy and legal challenges that make dealing with human trafficking hard, as well looking at the strategies that are used to get people into the US world of sex trafficking. The author focuses on revealing the routes that are being used to get these women and children illegally into the United States.

This is a lit review of articles on the sexual exploitation of women and children within the US. They look at the economics side of human trafficking and the legal issues surrounding human trafficking.

(couldn't bookmark the PDF version so I had to find a summary) This article is based on interviews with women that have sexually exploited within the US. They looked at the networks that were instrumental in gathering the women, the methods used to control the women, and the social consequences for sex trafficking.
