Slavery didn't end in 1833, when William Wilberforce's decades-long campaign finally resulted in the Slavery Abolition Act. It didn't end in 1863, when Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation. It didn't end in 1949, when the United Nations declared trafficking "incompatible with the dignity and worth of the human person." The sad truth is, slavery never ended. It just went underground, where it continues to exploit powerless men, women and children in horrific ways throughout the world. Now for the good news: you have power. In *Refuse to Do Nothing,* "Abolitionist Mamas" Shayne Moore and Kimberly Yim share their stories of coming to terms with the power available to them in their normal, everyday lives to * illuminate the shadows where those who traffic in people hide * compel corporations to fight slavery in how their products are made * motivate politicians to fight for human dignity * mobilize friends and strangers alike to fight slavery at home and throughout the world
Slavery doesn't end without a fight. But get to know Shayne and Kimberly and their abolitionist friends, and you'll find the power God grants to all who fight for the powerless, and the joy awaiting those who refuse to do nothing.

I read this book cover to cover in two days. If you know nothing about modern day slavery, this book is for you. If you know something about modern day slavery, but feel helpless, this book is for you. If you have counted yourself out in being effective as an abolitionist because you are a mum, wife, or you don't have much time then this book is for you. The chapters are short, easy to read, and well laid out. There are lots of tips, websites and action steps that are all doable without having to move house or change jobs. A very informative and well researched book that will leave you feeling inspired and ready to take the next step in tackling the issues of human trafficking.
