In 2003 the Founder of [free-them] moved from Oakville, Ontario Canada to Honolulu, Hawaii USA to pursue her university education. She moved into Waikiki onto a street named Kuhio Avenue (if you stay in Waikiki long enough, you learn quickly that this street is also known as Candy Lane – it’s the track). Daily she encountered prostitutes at her “front door” and instead of rejecting them, she started to engage. Over a short period of time, she began to learn that the word “prostitute” which we equate often with “choice” should be replaced with “prostituted.” Once this word, “prostituted” is introduced into your vocabulary, you learn the word “human trafficking” (and for many your world will never be the same again).
