The Natashas - Inside The New Global Sex Trade


I've been reading The Natashas by Victor Malarek. It's taken me a while because it is so brutal and so wrong what is happening to women and children in the sex trade industry. This is an issue that is gaining more attention, but unfortunately is met with more blank stares and shrugged shoulders. Please educate yourself on the issue of Human Trafficking and get involved in ending slavery. People should not be bought and sold.

"In "The Natashas: The New Global Sex Trade" (Viking Canada, $36 Canadian; negotiations are under way for a U.S. print run and an international film), Mr. Malarek estimates that of the 1 million young women sold worldwide for sex every year, one-quarter come from Eastern Europe, including about 100,000 from Ukraine alone." - by Christopher Guly
