This episode steps back from the Epstein case to examine the global anti-trafficking movement that the case has galvanized. It surveys the legislative, institutional, and grassroots responses to sex trafficking worldwide, assessing what is working, what is not, and where the Epstein case has specifically driven change. The thesis is that while the Epstein case has been a catalyst for anti-trafficking awareness and reform, the movement faces enormous structural challenges, and the same power dynamics that protected Epstein continue to impede progress globally.
