We’ve mentioned the new documentary called At the End of Slavery before. From the IJM website:
Narrated by actor Danny Glover, At the End of Slavery: The Battle for Justice in our Time takes you inside the violent and ugly business of modern-day slavery — the buying and selling of human beings — from the brothels of the Philippines to the brick kilns of India.
…
At the End of Slavery is designed to serve as a tool to open eyes, in the same way that the abolitionists who brought the trans-Atlantic slave trade to an end used this compelling image. Bring your community into the fight against slavery by introducing them to the reality of this crime: Host a house party screening.
International Justice Mission is offering kits to host home screening parties. This would be another great way to tell your friends or church group about human trafficking! The kit is just $15 and includes the DVD, resources and ideas for action. They are encouraging everyone to host a showing the weekend of November 14-15, 2009 as part of the Weekend to End Slavery. If that doesn’t work for you, why not host one as part of the International Day for the Abolition of Slavery?
I haven’t seen the documentary yet, but based on other resources from IJM, I can strongly recommend it! Plus, they are making it easy to tell your friends.
