Synopsis

This book is a resource for those with no understanding about trafficking for Sexual exploitation as well as those who have a great deal of knowledge and experience in countering this modern-day enslavement. Drawing together a wide range of vioces, from the poet to the survivor, from the theologian to the activist and enforcer, Not for Sale gives voice to many who have so fare remained voiceless and brings the outrage of rape, intimidation and abuse of power right into your personal space and understanding. This is essential reading for all those who seek to understand today the abuse of power, gender, and people which is taking place today, in hundreds of thousands of lives across the world. It is a book which will change your attitude and empower action to speak out and change our cultures which collude with so much abuse which is left to destroy peoples lives. In High Streets, leafy suburbia, the slums of Mumbai, appartments in Westminster - trafficking takes place across the world, in the shadows, out of sight and out of mind. Not for Sale rolls back the fog in understanding and lets in the light on what might be done to change what is taking place. As a piece of activism emerging from the churches, Not for Sale looks at the biblical record concerning sex crimes and unmasks the abuse of power that underpins sex slavery, both then and now. Graphically sophisticated, the book s impact is insight, resulting from a greater-than-the-sum-of the-parts processing of the book s multi-dimensional content. The reader is drawn to identify, rather than stand apart - merely judging or pitying. The reader is invited to become part of a redeeming community that can offer a safe place (safe houses) for survivors to recover their personhood. While the devastation of sex slavery is made real, so too is the practical help that people in churches can offer to end this exploitation. Hope is the result of reading this book.
