I’d like to point out: As of 2024, the vast majority of sex trafficking victims are NOT American, as Xavier states around six minutes in. I understand this was produced and aired only a few years ago, but I have huge doubt that was in fact the case back then either. I want to also make clear that not all prostitution is performed by men and women who are trafficked humans. This documentary nearly suggests the opposite. This assumption is unfair to both humans who choose to sell sex of their own volition, as well as to humans who are robbed of any consent to do so and are forced and/or coerced.

does anyone know if Tyesa ever completed her memoir? i'd love to give it a read some time.

Tell the homeboy who can't find a job I feel you G! Hold your head it gets better...not easier! Just better. Apply at moving companies you'll get a job asap. 💯

Update your title spelling.

There should be a program like in NY

Very well done! What a beautiful program! My condolences to those who lost these wonderful souls.🙏🏼❤️

This is such a heartwarming documentary! ❤

stay strong 🙏🏾

I wish all of you Love and Light 🙏

Always wanted to shoot photos like Grant.

I live in San Diego and we had a hotel that was well known to be the hotel that you go to for prostitutes. Everyone knew and it took so friggin long before they raided the hotel and closed it down. It's now a new hotel, but I bet they still do some business there. Yeah El Cajon Blvd is "The Blvd". It used to be the popular street for prostitutes, but now you see a lot of them strolling the main strip where the Navy bases are and they KNOW when payday is and on payday some service members will purchase even if they are underage. It's sickening. I used to work at an Adult store and you would see pimps bring in their girls to purchase clothes (lingerie) and heels maybe some chrome jewelry for their "girl" and we couldn't intervene at the time because it would be dangerous for her, but we have police stop by daily, so we would show them the surveillance so they know who to look for, but you don't know if they did anything about it. Some pimps tried to recruit me. I was in my early 20s, but looked like I was still in HS. Parents if you have a teen even if they are males (young boys are becoming popular as well) have them watch these documentaries in hopes that they don't fall for the game. San Diego has a long way to go.

Love Death Valley National Park! This was such a fun film to make.

My property in Pioneertown survived the 2006 fire. I have a Joshua tree forest. However, I have seen way too much loss over the last 25 years. I know that I am not allowed to remove one, but am I allowed to help them? If so, how?

Yeah Grant! Beautiful, Iconic Images.🔥. Much 💜

The lady in the beginning she still is beautiful inside and out so that wasn’t taken away from her

"We're all going to die, but why rush it?" Love it!

Solutions or calls to action? Otherwise this piece is just another pity party.

Good God, educate boys to STOP buying sex!

Imagine fighting while trying to prevent your nose from falling into your mouth

We have been hunted for centuries. Men do not respect, honor or cherish us. The most 'decent' will bend to their lust and sometimes for sport alone, go after us with no care as to how their attacks affect us. Never trafficked here, but assaulted, date raped, dissed (no one lays a hand as they'd have a cat fight and they must sense that. It was always a Romeo or grooming approach). GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRLFRIENDS,! 🥀 PS. My church of 20 years where I tithe has major investment to rescue, shelter, support and hopefully create opportunities for trafficked girls and women. Shiloh house I believe is one partner. Blessings sisters

Beautiful piece. My distant cousins of that region knew what they had. A very sacred, spiritual, cosmic frontier. I love that people have discovered it, but I also hate that they have because we are just so reckless and careless about the environments we impose ourselves upon. Love the song there at the end. Where can I find it?

You had me until Becerra came on. He's the king of child and drug trafficking

I almost became a target in Texas , but I listen to my first mind and change my routings. It can happen at the biggest retail in the world.

Why isn’t anyone talking about how the music industry glorifies this behaviour?????? WHY

Liam Neeson approves of this message.

Informative video.

This happens to young boys too, not just girls...

Brilliant!

*There wouldn't be any dirty women if there wasn't any dirty men*

my twins anna grace cardwell and alexis gabrielle cardwell have been threatened either by a former landlord who traffic s children fyffe al and others like i was threatened and followed around since i was five. i know now people have been thrown in trash bins car jacked buried in sand in pensacola al and other places. apparently people havent posted on linkedin and other sites that i knew in 2019 and after 2020 to now there are no posts from people. people ive know since 1975 are notorius for this and excoworkers to get promotions who have blackmailed voyeured revenge cam and got access to peoples houses with ring cameras etc.. and illegal online communities with illegal hidden identities on playstation too.

This is a direct result of wm in ameri c a being allowed to get away with literal murder, now they are raping their children and now they are paying for sex with children this video says san diego which is 54% white. Blame the gangs buthow can they operate with out the police judges and the buyers?

It is sad to hearing about, but all Governments are involved in this. The laws are not protecting anyone.

I visited the Salton Sea last Wednesday. Don't think I'll ever forget that putrid funk! 😵

BAD POLICIES!!! Close the borders. The US is now leading the world I. Human trafficking! Know what you are doing when we go to the polls! STOP VOTING FOR THESE CRIMINAL POLITICIANS WHO ARE INVOLVED AND HAVE POLICIES to prohibit this inhuman lifestyle! Why have a governor or legislature who enact bills making prostitution legal, California? Where is the outcry???

The human trafficking numbers are mind-boggling simply because the himan trafficking numbers have long been bold-faced lies, primarily because they've never, ever had any real, solid numbers. So if you listen closely, human trafficking activists will always say that, "This isn't about numbers or we don't want to focus on numbers." Because they know that their numbers are totally impractical bold-faced lies. How can 100,000,000 women and girls per year be trafficked in a country whose entire population is less than 332,000,000, that would mean that nearly 1/3 of the females in America were being trafficked which would put a woman or girl on the corner of every street in this country every day of the week and any sane person knows that that is absolutely not reality. However, when faced with these bold-faced lies women are like, "We know that they're lying but let's roll with it!" because women totally love bold-faced lies and totally senseless drama. That's precisely why you've never heard one single woman complain about black men who are accused of human trafficking being sentenced to hundreds of years in prison while white people like Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell are only sentenced to 20 years in prison and white women who have been out recruiting for pimps (including the Epstein Girls, many of whom recruited each-other into Epstein's international operation) are sentenced to Therapy, while black girls who have done exactly the same things are paraded through the media as ghetto pariah as opposed to being hailed as feminist heroine and showered with hundreds of millions of dollars in praises and prizes. Since we don't really have a proper educational system in North America, people don't immediately recognize that such judicial inequities are in-fact Apartheid Sentencing.

This is too much to watch.

17:08 The Pimp and Madame were regal titles which were associated with the capitalization of the economic operations for which prostitution during courtship was once honored. Now, tricksers, often shortened as tricks, infiltrate communities to mislead and mismanage the affairs of those involved by of the managerial roles which Pimps or Madames respectively serve to undermine these efforts because of impoverished views which falsely limits the sexual competition that still persists. The abuse of power is the laziness of con-artistry that allows such offenses to go unnoticed.

You are all so STRONG & you are here to help others!!! God bless you all!!!

I am inspired to get on your level

Thank u ladies for sharing ur experiences with us, shows how strong, n courageous u are. You're truly beautiful women. Educating our children (boys n girls) on this subject, giving them more positive interaction, build confidence, self worth, awareness, hope, etc. Adults need to be more aware, insightful, n open to change.

3:07 “that’s noones dream..” 💔😩 💯 For real though.

Here's a tip for authorities james ronald forseythe.

Been there. They stole my identity again this am
