My topic for the National History Day Project is Human Trafficking. This is a huge problem now and has been for a long time. Human Trafficking is the buying and selling of humans as things. This is the second biggest money making industry in the world right behind drug trafficking. For my project I am focussing on sex trafficking. Sex trafficking is the most awkward of the 4 types of trafficking which is why I am focusing on it. People never want to talk about it but it needs to be talked about in order to stop it. You probably feel awkward reading this but thats exactly the problem, it needs to be known. Im talking about a few different things in my project. Im talking about laws having to do with human trafficking, what rights are being broken, a specific survivor, and what SHOULD and IS being done to stop trafficking.
As for this week, I need to research a little more history on trafficking, fix a few annotated bibliographies, and get my ideas together. I also need to try to start my draft, im not so sure that will happen though.
Hey Katie,
ReplyDeleteI like how you chose a topic that has meaning to you, and appreciate that even though this is a some-what touchy subject you still stuck to a topic that you wanted to research.
