Voluntary Slavery

 As Americans we pride ourselves in being the 'Land of the Free' and yet only 17% of registered voters took part in this week's election; our most basic Democratic freedom.  While our voter apathy may be a form of 'voluntary slavery,'  slavery is very real for an estimated 27 million people in the world today.  Thats more than all of the African Slave trade in the 19th century combined!

The recent story of the kidnapped school girls in Nigeria is a reminder that we should never take our education or our freedom for granted.

What can we do to bring an end to slavery?

Will it work or is it 'slacktivism?'

Do your purchases support slavery?

Would you look the other way?
