In this searing broadcast, the hosts expose the harrowing reality behind recent immigration raids in California, revealing how unaccompanied minors are trafficked by cartels, indebted into slavery, and forced to work in dangerous conditions—including illegal pot farms allegedly protected by Democrat politicians. Drawing on reports from DHS, Fox News, and firsthand accounts, they detail how DNA testing was suspended to conceal crimes, how campaign donations flowed from exploitative growers, and how known sex offenders were employed alongside trafficked children. The segment argues that a corrupt alliance between cartels and political leaders fuels modern-day slavery, human rights abuses, and systemic child exploitation in America.

I was blown away to hear Moe Turaga's story at a recent conference. Most of the time we think of Modern Slavery as a distant problem – something that happens in other countries. So how do we react when we find out that it's happening right here in Australia, often in plain sight. Moe Turaga bravely shared his first-hand experience of being exploited under slavery conditions. What are we missing here? Which products on the shelves of supermarkets and retail stores have been put there by exploiting workers?In this interview, we're joined by Måns Carlsson, Head of ESG at Ausbil Investment Management, to understand the role of companies, consumers and investors in confronting this crisis facing an estimated 50 million people worldwide. Måns is a recognised leader in Modern Slavery and worker exploitation, with a long standing commitment to addressing human rights risks across portfolios. So much so that he was awarded the Order of Australia Medal in 2022 for his contribution to the sustainable investment industry.Måns takes us inside his work — from visiting factories and engaging directly with companies, to pushing for stronger transparency, and harnessing innovations in technology. This is a confronting but crucial conversation about responsibility, accountability, and the power investors have to protect human dignity, both in Australia and around the world.

What does it take to confront a problem as complex and entrenched as modern slavery? Across Asia-Pacific, an estimated 15 million people live in modern slavery often taking the form of of forced labour, human trafficking, and online exploitation among many others. In this episode, AVPN Academy speaks with Rae Lee and Sinni Lim from International Justice Mission (IJM), an organisation with nearly three decades of experience working to protect people from violence and exploitation. They reflect on how IJM has approached this wicked problem through systems-level work — including a six-dimensional, experience-based model that engages survivors, legal systems, and communities in creating long-term change.Together, they explore how this model has been applied across contexts, and how IJM continues to grapple with challenges such as replicability, measurement, and sustained cross-sector collaboration. The conversation also touches on the role of values — and, in some contexts, faith — in anchoring this work, and offers reflections for those navigating similarly complex social challenges.To learn more about AVPN's ongoing Faith and Giving initiative, which builds an inclusive space for faith and non-faith actors to collectively drive impact, click here: https://avpn.asia/capital-for-impact/faith-and-giving/

The Sex Slave Empire:They promised personal growth and empowerment. Instead, they delivered branding irons, sex slavery, and psychological torture that destroyed hundreds of lives. This is the horrifying true story of how Keith Raniere transformed a self-help organization into a criminal empire built on human trafficking, sexual exploitation, and mind control techniques that would make the CIA jealous. From Hollywood actresses to wealthy heiresses, discover how NXIVM's predators systematically identified, groomed, and enslaved their victims using scientifically-designed psychological manipulation. We'll expose the shocking recruitment methods that targeted vulnerable women, the sadistic initiation rituals that included literal branding with Raniere's initials, and the blackmail system that kept victims trapped in sexual slavery for years. Featuring leaked audio recordings of Raniere's sick fantasies, testimonies from survivors who escaped the nightmare, and expert analysis of the mind control techniques that turned independent women into obedient slaves. This episode reveals how modern slavery operates in plain sight, hidden behind legitimate businesses and charismatic leaders who weaponize trust and vulnerability.

The Congo is four times larger than France, it's bigger than India, it's bigger than Texas, Alaska, California & Montana combined - the equator runs right through it's middle and makes it the second largest rainforest on the globe - it's impossibly rich in resources, and desperately poor in economics. In those 13 years of private ownership, Leopold oversaw potentially one of the most brutal regimes of extraction the world has ever known. The population was estimated to have halved in those 13 years, more than 10 million deaths. It was an exploit in mass slavery, mass death, bodily mutilation and mass extraction. Ivory and wild rubber were in high demand, and so under the guise of media manipulation and PR mastery, Leopold convinced the world that these goods were in fact being traded with, rather than extracted from, the Congo. The horror, however, could only be concealed for so long. A fella by the name of Ed Morell who worked for a shipping company in Liverpool noticed the bounty of ivory and rubber arriving from the Congo, with only men and arms making the journey back. His suspicion grew, he found accounts from missionaries and others who had been, and mounted a campaign to undermine the constant wall of propaganda Leopold had financed.In 1908, the Belgium state purchased the Congo off Leopold… where the country remained a colony of Belgium until 1960. And for a myriad of reasons, for which we address in the podcast, the Congo today is still on the back foot. Kinshasa, the capital city already has a bigger population than Paris, and is projected to be as much as 40,000,000 by 2050. The Congo today is among the most resource rich nations on earth, but among the least developed. It still attracts the same predation for extraction as it ever has, although all together less forceful and less violentThe man I speak with on the podcast today wrote the definitive history of this period. His name is Adam Hochschild, he's an author, journalist and historian and wrote in 1998, 'King Leopold's Ghost'. 00:00 Congo's Dark History & Adam Hochschild03:03 Leopold's Brutal Regime09:02 Modern Parallels of Exploitation12:11 The Unique Case of King Leopold14:58 The Mechanics of Control & Media Manipulation20:45 Campaigning Against Atrocities: The Legacy of Morrell34:22 Colonialism and Forced Labor: The Belgian Congo36:16 The Rubber Boom and Its Consequences38:09 Criticism Of The Book & Congolese Resistance42:57 Nationalism and Colonialism: Morel's Perspective44:48 The Impact of Colonialism on Modern Nations47:17 Geography and Development: The Congo's Challenges49:51 Natural Resources and Corruption52:27 The Future of the Congo: A Grim Outlook57:22 Serendipity(There was an technical difficulty right at the end of the conversation, which is why it cuts off) Consider leaving a review on whichever platform you're listening on!

Human trafficking is a widespread crisis affecting over 21 million people, with traffickers profiting from exploitation. The church has a responsibility to confront this injustice by raising awareness, advocating for policy changes, and addressing cultural factors that enable trafficking, such as the over-sexualization of women. Christians must move beyond indifference, engaging in relief, restoration, and reform while ensuring the gospel remains central. Men should be raised to be protectors, and families must have open conversations about the dangers of online grooming and exploitation. Financial support is valuable, but giving time and encouragement to anti-trafficking efforts is equally important. Through prayer, action, and biblical justice, believers can work to combat human trafficking and support those affected.Send us a textThanks for listening!

She has been busy promoting the book and is planning a series of launch events and speaking engagements to share its message of empowering women to overcome fears and reach their full potential.She further shares how growing up as a Korean-Canadian was challenging, asa she felt like she didn't fully belong in either culture. This experience of being "in the middle" actually became a superpower, helping her develop strong communication and cross-cultural skills.Sylvia's interest in the issue of human trafficking and forced prostitution was sparked at a young age when she learned about the experiences of Korean "comfort woman" during WWII. This led her to dedicate much of her career to investigating and exposing these atrocities, and advocating for survivors.To manage the intensity of her work and busy schedule, Sylvia shared that she relies on self-care practices like massage, exercise, and spending time in nature.

January is National Human Trafficking Awareness Month. I think that this powerful episode will make you stop and really think about how this is a problem, not just in large cities, but also could be in your own backyard. Today, I sit down with Becky Murray, the founder of One By One and author of Embrace the Journey. Becky shares her incredible story of growing up in a Christian home, her journey of faith, and the life-changing moment that led her to dedicate her life to ending modern slavery. Becky recounts the heartbreaking encounter with a 9-year-old girl in Africa that revealed the harsh realities of child exploitation. This moment became the catalyst for One By One, a nonprofit organization that fights human trafficking, provides resources for vulnerable children, and addresses issues like period poverty through initiatives such as The Dignity Project. We also discuss the incredible work of the Mercy Center, a safe haven for girls rescued from trafficking and exploitation. Becky shares how One By One not only rescues but also rehabilitates and empowers these young survivors, helping them find healing and equipping them with skills for a brighter future. Key topics include: Becky's personal journey of faith and her heart for vulnerable children. The story behind the founding of One By One. The Dignity Project: addressing period poverty and preventing trafficking. The Mercy Center: rescuing, healing, and empowering young survivors. How each of us can make an impact by loving our neighbors and standing against injustice. This episode is a testament to the power of one moment, one life, and one act of faith to bring hope and transformation. Bio: Becky Murray is the founder and CEO of One By One. Her life was transformed in 2006 when a young girl she bought a pair of shoes for on the streets of Sierra Leone assumed she wanted sexual favours in return. This moment sparked the formation of One By One, and after acquiring land in Africa in 2009, One By One Kenya opened its doors in 2012. Becky is also the founder of the Dignity Project and is the host of Embrace The Journey, to be seen on TBN UK. She has spoken at both the White House and 10 Downing Street and has appeared on the BBC and many other media outlets. She is married to Matthew and the couple have one son, Josiah. ABOUT ONE BY ONE One By One is a charity with a heart for the vulnerable across the world. Formed in 2011 by Becky Murray, One By One's first project was its residential facility in Kenya which aims to rehouse and give hope to children that otherwise would be living in abject poverty. More recently, a rescue centre was built near to South Asia, housing victims of human trafficking. There are more than 3 million people in slavery in this nation, being forced to work in some of the country's 20,000 brick kilns. One By One has a heart to reach, rescue and restore lives across South Asia. The charity also runs a widows' programme in North Sri Lanka, working with women whose husbands were killed in the brutal civil war. In addition, The Dignity Project – that provides teenage girls with re-usable sanitary items and education – was formed in 2015, and has now expanded to nine countries. Nearly 45,000 girls have been reached through the Dignity Project since its launch in the Houses of Parliament. Most recently we have started a project within Jinja Uganda, where our focus is on educating the local community and health care professionals on the dangers and signs of Human Trafficking. In addition to this we have expanded the Dignity Project to become a year long curriculum that is delivered across schools within Jinja. One By One is a registered charity in the UK and a registered 501(c)(3) in the USA. All funds given to either entity are governed by One By One's executive team and are restricted for use in One By One's ongoing projects across the world.

In Episode 190 of the R.O.D. Podcast, we dive into one of our most thought-provoking conversations yet. Could the concept of slavery—something historically brutal and oppressive—hold a controversial potential to awaken unity, self-determination, and collective empowerment within the Black community today? In this episode, we explore why some argue that returning to these “chains” might be a catalyst for overcoming divisions, rejecting Euro-Christian ideologies, and rekindling solidarity against systemic injustices. Our goal is to examine both sides of this debate, asking hard questions like: How can unity thrive under oppression? Would modern-day adversity compel more people to recognize the real adversaries? Join us in this deep discussion that challenges beliefs, identity, and the struggle for Black liberation. Let's uncover if there's truth to this claim—or if it's simply a call for deeper self-awareness and empowerment.

Children's Rescue Initiative founder Bruce Ladebu joins us to discuss the 20 years he's spent liberating hundreds of people from slavery and trafficking! What We Discuss with Bruce Ladebu: Human trafficking and slavery affect around 40 million globally, generating $150 billion per year. Exploitation includes forced labor, domestic servitude, and sex trafficking of all ages. Heartless and often sadistic traffickers prey on the most vulnerable and desperate populations, including disaster-stricken children and marginalized minorities. Corruption and apathy among local authorities and law enforcement allow this atrocity of an industry to thrive. Rescuing trafficking victims is perilous work, but Bruce Ladebu's team has saved hundreds over the past 20 years. Extensive physical and mental rehabilitation in the aftermath is often necessary for these survivors to cope with the trauma they've endured. Children's Rescue Initiative is Bruce's organization that provides funding for a variety of programs that help to rescue children from trafficking and slavery, provide them with shelter and care, and help them reintegrate into society. Donating cash is just one way to help — people can also volunteer their time to organizations like Children's Rescue Initiative that are working to combat human trafficking and slavery. There are a number of ways to volunteer, such as working in a shelter, providing legal assistance, or advocating for policy changes. And much more...
