Does Hip Hop Music Play a Role In Sexual Exploitation? Raised In Pimp City Q&A  #1 with Rhonelle Bruder of Toronto Canada.

I'm often times on the phone with someone that I have never met in person answering questions about my background in the subculture of Pimping and Prostitution. Today I was about to enter into another one of these conversations with Rhonelle Bruder when the idea of making this a thing for my podcast. I mean why not? Im asked some pretty damn good questions that others may want to know as well. For the sake of keeping this as authentic as possible I asked her to stop our conversation so that we could set up a podcast instead to capture our dialogue. Now here it is live for you to listen to as we discuss the. influence of rap music and domestic human sex trafficking.

Today we have the honor of speaking with Dixie Hairston who's a Research Project Manager for The University of Texas at Austin. With 4 years of in depth research on at-risk youth and young adult sexual exploitation and several years involved in social work and been involved in legislative work involving trafficking. Dixie is in tune and in touch with trafficking in Texas.  Lets talk solutions!

Join me and my guest Amanda Colegrove as we discuss labor trafficking and how we as Americans can help end it.  Amanda is the Safe Harbor Expansion Coordinator for the Minnesota Department of Health. She manages the integration of, identification of, and services to labor trafficked youth in Minnesota's response to sex trafficking.

It’s been a while since my last podcast 🤦🏾‍♂️ So much good and seemingly bad things have happened in this past month. Really the past few months. Since nobody will talk to me but rather just talk about me, I figured that it’s time to open the dialogue. Communication is everything. My sister Jaimee Johnson joins me for the conversation. 

Can a former exploiter be able to help in the anti sex trafficking movement? 

What are the pros & cons of this? 

Can the victimized and former victimizer ever work together to save others from falling into the game? 

What are possible solutions to unify the people who’s common goal is to help save lives?

Epiphany Women In Focus, the most overlooked survivor created and led organization in San Diego. Listen to my sister Rashida Hameed as she speaks on the solutions shes been applying over the past 10 years. This has got to be one of the realest conversations that I have had with an organization that comes directly from my community and background.  Her continued service to women and children is invaluable.
