Be warned, what follows is important, but disturbing.
The story is human trafficking is a problem for other people in other countries, but the truth is it is a growing problem here in the United States, even as awareness increases. While the facts are horrific, there is hope for survivors, and there are things you can do. Today we discuss “Shining a Light on the Darkness of Human Trafficking.”
For almost 8 years now Jessica Mass has worked providing immediate and long-term care for victims after they are rescued from human trafficking by OUR, Operation Underground Railroad. In July this year, the film Sound of Freedom will be released, which tells the story of OUR’s founder Tim Ballard.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
