Introduction

I hope to be counted among those who did not stand silent. FightSlaveryNow.Org has been working in NYC and collaborating with other social justice groups, to raise awareness of modern-day slavery and work toward its eradication.

Additional Information

""Looking for a way to collaborate and share information with the more than 30 Meetup groups across the country that are tackling the issue of human trafficking. ""

What avra cohen is saying about this Meetup Group

Elie Wiesel: "I swore to never be silent whenever and wherever human beings endure suffering and humiliation. We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim, silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented."

  • Hi Avra! Thanks for the notice re: Lilac. I arrived there a bit late so I must have missed you and anyone else from the group. But their samples were delicious and I enjoyed meeting the chocolatier and new owners.
