It
is all very well trying to champion a cause by yourself, but it is so much more
effective when you can team up with others who are passionate about the same thing
as you are!
Find
out who’s in your area and link up with them! That’s right, there are other
people in your area who share your passion in abolishing slavery. Whether it’s
a local task force, or a student group that is hosting an event, join them and
stand together in the fight for freedom. A good way to start doing this is by
searching through facebook or twitter (i.e. check who likes/follows the A21
Campaign).
If
you are in America, there is an Abolition Summit 2013 being held from 2nd-4th
January 2013. Check out the video for more details:

Another
example of how to link locally is to put on your own events. On the 30th
November there is a ladies movie night in Harlow (UK) to watch Nefarious (a film/documentary highlighting the seriousness of human trafficking).
A friend of mine sent me the following message with details of the event:
Hi Ladies,
We are very excited about our upcoming ladies movie event about billions of
women being traffick into prostitution all over the world. We seriously need to
make a stand to this! This is guaranteed to be a impacting evening, so please

So ladies, if you are available on Friday 30th November
and able to get to Harlow, please contact Talita on the details above. Invite
your friends along! Gentlemen, please pass this on the ladies in your lives.
However you decide to link locally, nationally or
internationally, remember: there is strength in numbers! So spread the word and
find out how you can link up with others fighting for the same cause!
Blessings!
