Araminta Freedom Initiative, Inc. via HuffPost Impact: "Students at William Byrd High School... didn't used to think the words " #sextrafficking" had anything to do with them or their rural, southwestern Virginian town. Then their U.S. history teacher, Cristy Spencer, [delivered a] Read more ... lesson as part of a high school curriculum created by the Frederick Douglass Family Initiatives, a nonprofit anti-trafficking and #abolitionist organization based in Atlanta. Its curriculum aims to raise students' awareness and help them protect themselves. Estimates of those being sex trafficked globally range between 12 million and 30 million. Educators and advocates want U.S. teens to know the problem could be very close to home. To this end, advocacy groups are bringing teacher trainings and curriculum to combat sex trafficking into classrooms.... Andrea Powell is executive director and co-founder of FAIR Girls, a Washington-based advocacy and education organization whose curriculum, Tell Your Friends, combines videos, art and songs.... "Half of the students who are asking for help are asking for help around intimate partner violence," Powell said. "The remaining is a combination of sexual abuse and commercial sexual exploitation and trafficking." ...Powell added that the curricula also causes reactions among boys. "I'm often surprised by how much boys want to take action on the issue," she said "Boys can be victims too and that's a very sensitive topic and we try to address that in our curriculum as well." ...Brown, the [William Byrd High School] student who was "horrified" when she learned about sex trafficking in the U.S., has taken the issue to heart. She spoke about it at a national anti-slavery conference held in Cincinnati this past fall. "I think this topic is especially important for girls because no one ever thinks it can happen to them, but it can. If you're not educated about sex trafficking, you will be a target," Brown said in an interview.... Brown thinks education about sex trafficking and exploitation should start sooner, as early as kindergarten. "Education is imperative to the abolition of all #moderndayslavery, even sex trafficking," she said. Brown's classmate, senior Callen Buchanan, agreed. She said that if trafficking were taught from an earlier age and in a setting such as health class while students also learn about dangers like drugs and teen pregnancy, fewer students would dismiss it as a serious problem. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/teens-maryland-sex-trafficking_56992b7ae4b0b4eb759e2d82

Andrew Teston Excuse me, but I heard from a scientist named John Cristy that global warming isn't really as people claim it to be. How accurate is this?
