We need to talk about the dark side of our society and masculinity, to be more aware and to take action. This time my guests are Alan Smyth who serves as the Executive Director for Saving Innocence, an anti-human trafficking, community based organization focused on the recovery and restoration of child victims of sex trafficking and Jessica Midkiff, a true “lived experience expert.” She has survived ten years of commercial, sexual exploitation as well as having spent over ten years of advocacy work helping victims escape and recover.
They have co-authored a new book: Men! Fight For Me, The Role of Authentic Masculinity in Ending Sexual Exploitation and Trafficking. Jessica was instrumental in piloting many of the programs still used today which help trafficking survivors exit the life. In 2015, she was recognized as “Woman of the Year” in Los Angeles County for her extraordinary work in the field. “Fight For Me” are words they heard directly from a survivor of sex trafficking.
