This book tells the stories of rescued victims and their heroic rescuers, and features background briefings on human trafficking, and practical ideas that empower individuals and their communities to join the campaign for human freedom.

Description

"Human trafficking is not an issue of the left or right, blue states or red states, but a great moral tragedy we can unite to stop. Not for Sale is a must-read to see how you can join the fight." - Jim Wallis, author of God's Politics

"David Batstone is a heroic character." - Bono

In the revised and updated version of this harrowing yet deeply inspirational exposé, award-winning journalist David Batstone provides the most up-to-date information available on the $31 billion human trafficking epidemic. With profiles of twenty-first-century abolitionists like Thailand's Kru Nam and Peru's Lucy Borja, Batstone informs readers on how they can contribute to stopping the modern slave trade.

Like Kevin Bales' Disposable People and Ending Slavery, or E. Benjamin Skinner's A Crime So Monstrous, Batstone's Not for Sale is an informative and necessary manifesto for universal freedom.
