Defending Our Children with Vanessa Kohnen

As an American survivor of human trafficking, Dr. Jennisue Jessen, knows the depths of trauma a body can endure but she also knows the great lengths Jesus will go to redeem those held in captivity. She was sold into the sex trade at age four but God provided for her rescue and escape at age 17. 

In 2011, Jennisue and her husband KJ, founded Compass 31, an international NGO that fights human trafficking through prevention, restoration, and leadership development. 

Now she puts the love of Christ into practice by empowering other survivors to be catalysts for change and training national leaders to prevent human trafficking through education. 

Jennisue served a 2-year term on the US Advisory Council on Human Trafficking, where she alongside a group of peers, helped to inform federal counter-trafficking policies.

Kim Kelley was born and raised in a cult, which she escaped at the age of 20. She shared some of her experiences and discussed her perspectives on cults, brainwashing, grooming, ritualistic abuse, child trafficking, and the impact of awareness.

How Big Tech is censoring child trafficking awareness.

Despite surmounting evidence of child trafficking in all 50 states and every major city, large social media platforms like Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and TikTok seem to suppress, censor, and/or remove posts on the topic.

The viral impact of these awareness campaigns arms the public with the information they need to safeguard children and help prevent this gruesome crime from thriving in their communities. It even resulted in hundreds of organized rallies and marches all over the USA, from Washington, to Tennessee, to Michigan to California. Increased public awareness also funds the nonprofit organizations who are taking action to protect and rescue children.

Why would anyone want to sabotage efforts to raise awareness about child trafficking?
