Editor's Note.
Welcome to Enslavement Magazine! In this digital magazine we will be presenting you with information on two forms of modern slavery in our world today. We focus our topics in Utah, but these featured issues are ones that are globally dealt with. When the word slavery comes to your mind, what do you think of? Most likely racial slavery, right? But when we say modern slavery, we mean the kind of slavery that is still going on to this day; not focused on race, rather focused on the action of being enslaved as a living being.
As you read through this magazine, you will see pieces presenting information on Human Trafficking, primarily Sex Trafficking, and Animal Rights and Animal Cruelty. Both of these issues are categorized as modern day slavery. Through this website, you will see podcasts, memoirs, essays, and presentations, all giving information on these two modern day issues. Human Trafficking and Animal Rights are two very horrible things that happen on the planet we live in. When it comes to Human Trafficking, Sex Trafficking is the worst that can occur in these situations. Young children, women, and men who are taken and used as sex slaves is not something you want to hear about in the next news story. The same goes for animals. They are killed in slaughterhouses, held captive in cages every day, and are deprived of a healthy, normal life. These animals are being enslaved and are being used as entertainment. This is why we made our magazine; to focus on how bad these problems can get here in Utah, as well as to inform the reader about the things that happen within these issues.
Each piece in this magazine is made to make you uncomfortable and made to entice your interest. They will take you into different kinds of perspectives and views which is something beneficial you will get when reading our magazine: a more open mind. A new and different way of looking at things. To fill each person with new knowledge is the goal of this magazine because if we do that, we can begin to see change all around us, so that we can better the community we live in. So that every human and animal can feel and be genuinely safe. We believe here that a more open mind can lead to real change happening. And that is another reason we write a magazine like this. Not only to inform others about these issues, but to be able to make a change to the world and these issues, and to help those who are enslaved and to free the broken. To heal, and to recover. Because with the extinction of ignorance and the growth of a mind, we can begin to see real change. We hope you enjoy our magazine, and thank you for giving to this cause.
