"Modern Day Slave Trade" event at Berkley

UC Berkley

Our joint college bible study groups (FBC SF, Vallejo and New Day) were invited to learn more about modern day slave trading and how slavery is still around in the world today.

The topics were broken down in 3 kinds of human trafficking. The first is bartering human beings for forced labor being payed minimally, beaten and treated as objects to own. The 2nd was Sex Slavery, trafficking women from lesser nations to greater ones promised fame fortune and hope only to be used as sexual objects, and Lastly underage militia, children forced to join the military.
There were 3 dramatic readings and videos concerning the topics as well as a performance from "Left on Mayfield".

It was a great evening, having around 3 youth groups (around 20 people deep) united by faith in Christ. I'm sure there will be more fellowship like this one in the future. Thank to the people that were involved and invite anyone who is interested for the next one.
