The plan for my presentation is mainly trying to get all of my ideas in the presentation in the allotted time. Here are the main ideas I am planning to talk about:
- Begin my presentation with a story (Anita, 19 when sold into slavery)
- Make the point that slavery did not end with the 13th amendment
- Numerous facts and data about slavery all around the world and in America (also the number of children sold into slavery in addition to women)
- Make the point that awareness is the first step
- Talk about the problems that occur even with people who are aware and trying to fight to help end sexual slavery (this includes talking briefly about the women who voluntarily decide to go back after being rescued and what organizations are doing wrong to cause this)
- Talk about two organizations that I believe are setting a good example in the fight to end slavery around the world (IJM and Bombay Teen Challenge)
- Give a glimmer of hope in the seemingly hopelessness that is sexual slavery
- Surprise ending that I don’t want to ruin on this blog
I am worried that I am not expanding upon the right things and that I will not get enough time to talk about the complicated issues that surround sexual slavery and the complex problems that surround trying to help. I hope that my presentation will at least make an impact on someone or begin to increase awareness in our class about the slavery that is currently happening in our country and our world.
