Research paper

The hardest part of my research paper is narrowing down the thesis to one thing I can discuss and make a point about.  There are so many different  types of modern slavery and I am having a hard time deciding if I want to address slavery as a whole, or discuss just one type of slavery and how he we can end it.  I want to make people aware of every kind of injustice, but for the sake of this paper, I feel I should focus on one specific part of slavery.

The  best part of writing this paper is being able to inspire people to want to end this cruelty going on in our world.  It is easy to write about something I am passionate about, and I am passionate about bringing healing to the sick and broken.  It gives me joy knowing that there are organizations created solely to rescuing slaves and helping restore their lives. The research will be exciting although may be tedious at times, but I think all the suffering slaves around the world deserve that time.

I think it was really helpful telling the class about my paper topic because I got to read everyone's questions and comments about it.  They gave me specific questions to address such as, "how is slavery different today than in early America" and "what countries today is it happening in the most."  Also some comments suggested me to write how human trafficking is happening in modern America and to give personal accounts of their slavery experience.  All the questions and comments are helping me figure out what exactly I want to talk about and why.

  1. I think this is a great idea to write about! So many people are joining together in an attempt to end slavery. I think this is a great way to address current topics that are personal to a lot of people. I'm interested to hear about any testimonies your are able to find from people who were enslaved themselves.
