Wow. Lisa Kristine is a very hard core photographer, with a massive story to tell.
Go full screen.
The campaign of 10,000 push-ups raised awareness about human trafficking, slavery, and forced prostitution, reaching 70,000 people directly and 750,000 in print. Show your support by learning more about the problem, and the many ways we can fight it, while sharing what you learn with your friends. Together, we can crush slavery!
"A human trafficker can earn 20 times what he or she paid for a girl. Provided the girl was not physically brutalized to the point of ruining her beauty, the pimp could sell her again for a greater price because he had trained her and broken her spirit, which saves future buyers the hassle. A 2003 study in the Netherlands found that, on average, a single sex slave earned her pimp at least $250,000 a year." - RandomHistory

City 2 Surf
Thanks to all who helped me support Project Futures End Sex Trafficking in the City 2 Surf. At 14kms, it's my longest race yet, and I feel a grand sense of accomplishment for just finishing it in under 2 hours!

Fighting Slavery in South Africa
Check out Servaas Hofmeyr at STOP Trafficking of People and The Stir.
As well as running two websites against slavery, this fine South African fellow has put a further dent in slavery by his recent awareness-raising run in the 2-oceans marathon.
Let's get behind him!
