SUMMARY:Detroit Community Group
DESCRIPTION:The Detroit Community Group will have its next meeting on Saturday\, February 24th\, 2018  from 2-4:30 pm at \nThe Detroit Public Library – Main Branch| 5201 Woodward Ave. | Detroit | 48202. Thy will meet in the Explorers room located on A-level. \nThe Detroit Community Group will be viewing “Not My Life” \n A STORY ABOUT THE WAY THE WORLD IS…\n\n\nFilmed on five continents\, in a dozen countries\, Not My Life takes viewers into a world where millions of children are exploited\, every day\, through an astonishing array of practices including forced labor\, domestic servitude\, begging\, sex tourism\, sexual violence\, and child soldiering.\n“Human traffickers are earning billions of dollars on the backs and in the beds of our children\,” says the film’s director\, Academy Award nominee\, Robert Bilheimer\, “and yet no one knows this is happening. We have a huge responsibility\, right now\, to learn the truth and act on it.”\nChallenging though it may be\, Not My Life’s message is ultimately one of hope. Victims of slavery can be set free and go on to live happy and productive lives. Those who advocate for slavery victims are growing in numbers\, and are increasingly effective. At this crossroads for the defining human rights issue of our time\, Not My Life tells us\, as the late Jonathan Mann said\, “We can no longer flee\, no longer hide\, no longer separate ourselves.”\n\n\nThe Detroit Community Group will meet monthly. \nTo receive more information about our Detroit Community Group\, please sign up to receive newsletters and reminders. Contact detroit@map-mi.org for more information.

SUMMARY:Shelby Twp: ‘Break the Chain’ Movie Showing
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Special Movie Night\nFebruary 19th\, 2018 @ 7pm\nShepherds Gate Church\n‘Break The Chain’\nwith Q & A following \nProduced and Directed by Michigan documentary filmmakers\, Laura E. Swanson and Kirk Mason\, ‘Break the Chain’ is an award-winning feature-length documentary film that addresses the often “hidden-in-plain-sight” issue of Human Trafficking within Michigan communities and the United States. The film chronicles two survivors of Human Trafficking – providing a detailed look at how trafficking goes unnoticed within our backyards.\nKwami\, a child survivor of Labor Trafficking\, was enslaved for nearly five years with three other children in Ypsilanti\, Michigan before anyone noticed. Debbie\, a survivor of Sex Trafficking\, takes us through her experience of being sold for sex around the Detroit-Area between the ages of 13 and 18.\nAccompanying the stories of these survivors are nearly 20 interviews with researchers\, Senators\, non-profit organizations\, legal service agencies\, law enforcement officers and several artists actively working to raise awareness for this global issue. The film teaches us that what we see in the media about human trafficking is one small sensationalized form – that it occurs anywhere and everywhere within our world. More importantly\, viewers will learn how we are all connected to this extremely profitable business and that we have the power to choose what we support\, and ultimately\, how we break the chain.

SUMMARY:Detroit Community Group
DESCRIPTION:The Detroit Community Group will have its next meeting on Saturday\, January 27th\, 2018  from 2-4:30 pm at \nThe Detroit Public Library – Main Branch| 5201 Woodward Ave. | Detroit | 48202. Thy will meet in the Explorers room located on A-level. \nIn January\, the Detroit Community Group will be viewing “Not My Life” \n A STORY ABOUT THE WAY THE WORLD IS…\n\n\nFilmed on five continents\, in a dozen countries\, Not My Life takes viewers into a world where millions of children are exploited\, every day\, through an astonishing array of practices including forced labor\, domestic servitude\, begging\, sex tourism\, sexual violence\, and child soldiering.\n\n“Human traffickers are earning billions of dollars on the backs and in the beds of our children\,” says the film’s director\, Academy Award nominee\, Robert Bilheimer\, “and yet no one knows this is happening. We have a huge responsibility\, right now\, to learn the truth and act on it.”\n\nChallenging though it may be\, Not My Life’s message is ultimately one of hope. Victims of slavery can be set free and go on to live happy and productive lives. Those who advocate for slavery victims are growing in numbers\, and are increasingly effective. At this crossroads for the defining human rights issue of our time\, Not My Life tells us\, as the late Jonathan Mann said\, “We can no longer flee\, no longer hide\, no longer separate ourselves.”\n\n\nThe Detroit Community Group will meet monthly. \nTo receive more information about our Detroit Community Group\, please sign up to receive newsletters and reminders. Contact detroit@map-mi.org for more information.
