According to Operation Underground Railroad (OUR), over 40 million people are trafficked globally — 25 percent of whom are children. Human trafficking impacts every zip code in the United States and is the second-largest illicit industry. Nearly 2 million children, the International Justice Mission reports, are victims of sex trafficking.
Sound of Freedom sheds light on this issue by telling the powerful true story of Tim Ballard, a former Department of Homeland Security agent who founded OUR to rescue children from sex trafficking.
Released in theaters July 4, the film has thus far been very successful: It’s already surpassed its $14.5 million budget in earnings with $40 million made in its first week. Putting a stop to human trafficking should be of the highest priority, and Sound of Freedom takes an important first step in raising awareness.
