“It’s Happening Here”: The Hidden Reality of Trafficking – EP1 – The Movement

Описание: What if the person sitting next to you had been trafficked—and you never knew?

In this premiere episode of The Movement, host David Reid sits down with Dennis Mark, founder of Redeemed, to dismantle one of the most dangerous myths about human trafficking: that it’s something that only happens overseas. From local establishments to school campuses and social media apps, this conversation peels back the layers on how trafficking hides in plain sight—and what real recovery looks like behind the headlines.

➡️ Why trafficking often goes unnoticed—even in “safe” neighborhoods
➡️ How traffickers exploit emotional, economic, and social vulnerabilities
➡️ What trauma actually does to the brain—and why recovery is lifelong
➡️ Why “just getting them out” doesn’t work
