Friends, you know I have a strong passion against sex trafficking. It’s real. It’s evil. And it’s underground.
After reading http://www.cataldolife.com/the-pink-room/, bloggers from California, I learned of a new documentary called The Pink Room. It looks to be an incredible documentary into the child sex trafficking trade in Cambodia.
See the trailer below (I retain no rights to the below trailer)
If you’ve been following my Twitter feed, you know that I was totally looking forward to watching this documentary with a small community of folks here in North Texas, but we had a huge surprise! Our beloved PBS station, KERA, IS NOT airing The Pink Room tonight, even though KVIE in Sacramento is airing the program.
Right now, according to the Cataldolife.com, the only other option is to host a screening. We could go that route…but why not spread the word even louder? Larger? Come on! WE can do this! Spread awareness about this issue and take a stand.
Right now, get on the phone and contact your local PBS station. Find contact information at http://www.pbs.org
Tell them you want to see The Pink Room aired on your station. Provide them with the links to

and tell them that KVIE is airing it tonight September 9 Monday at 10pm PST–and you want it here! Then thank them for some great programming. Yay PBS!
Spread the word on you social media sites. Make it happen. My friends, this issue is so real, and so evil. We are looking at modern day slavery–and the sheer numbers are terrifying.
