This episode deals with challenging and disturbing subject matter, and I want to encourage you to use discretion in deciding whether to listen to or share it. However, I believe that hearing this information can make an enormous difference, so I hope you’ll join me for this important conversation with Tim Ballard. Support Tim and his mission by catching his new film, Sound of Freedom at your local theater.

Did you know that the fastest growing criminal enterprise in the world is not drugs, guns, or any kind of fraud? No, the fastest growing criminal enterprise in the world is sex trafficking. According to my friend Tim, there are an estimated 30 million slaves in the world today, and about 10 million of those are children.

It’s a serious problem, but there are people out there who want to help. Operation Underground Railroad is a wonderful organization that is undercover in almost every country you can think of working to rescue these children and bring the traffickers to justice. In the six years since Tim founded the organization, they have rescued 3,800 victims and assisted in the arrests of more than 2,100 human traffickers. They’re doing great work, and at the end of the episode, Tim shares how you can get involved.

In this episode you will learn,

• That the U.S. is one of the world’s biggest players in child sex trafficking
• How Tim first started busting child sex rings
• Why most Americans are relatively unaware of the issue of child sex trafficking
• What parents can do to protect their kids online
• Plus much more

Update: There is some controversy about the information presented in this episode. A counterpoint to some of the statistics and specifics on the problem of human/child trafficking is in this piece released on Dec 9, 2021 from The Atlantic. 

Tim Ballard (@TimBallard) is a former Homeland Security agent who reluctantly got involved in chasing down global child trafficking. As the founder of Operation Underground Railroad, he is featured in the documentary film Operation Toussaint: Operation Underground Railroad and the Fight to End Modern Day Slavery, and is a co-author of the book adaptation as well as Slave Stealers: True Accounts of Slave Rescues -- Then and Now.

What We Discuss with Tim Ballard:

• Slavery is the fastest-growing criminal enterprise in the world.
• There are more people enslaved right now than there were during the transatlantic slave trade period between the 15th and 19th centuries.
• Slavery generates three times the revenue of the NFL. With the money from all the trafficking in the world, you could buy every Starbucks outlet in the world. Every NBA team in the nation. Every Target store.
• There are 30 million slaves in the world; 10 million of them are children.
• 17,500 children are trafficked into the US every year.
• And much more...
