Marisol Nichols Podcast Marisol Nichols

Marisol Nichols dives deep into the ‘Safer Streets for All Act’ in the state of California and how the state has turned into a 'safe haven’ for exploiters and traffickers to take advantage of vulnerable women, children, and the trans community.
This calls for legislators to reevaluate this newly enacted law, as it does more harm than good to potential victims of trafficking. This is because law enforcement has their hands tied, leaving cases of such crimes unchecked.
While California is a state full of dreams for many, for others who are trafficked and subjected to this current horrific law, it is also a place of nightmares.

Marisol Nichols sits down with Corporal (Ret.) Alan Wilkett to discuss the harsh realities of human trafficking, emphasizing its alarming shift from the streets to the digital world. They also reveal how brothels have evolved into seemingly innocent establishments, where women and minors are often forced to work.
They highlight the crucial role of laws like the Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA) in combating this crime and underline recent initiatives such as Florida's 'John Registry' for public accountability. Further, discussing concerns over legalizing sex work, they emphasize how this might conceal human trafficking activities. 
Join them as they navigate the complexities of human trafficking and explore potential solutions to help survivors and to eliminate trafficking in our society.

HRH Princess Eugenie, co-founder of The Anti-Slavery Collective, shares the inspiration behind the organization's inception: encounters with survivors of modern slavery. A significant event was meeting a woman in Kolkata, India in 2012 who rescues and supports trafficked women by providing employment opportunities. This experience motivated Princess Eugenie and her close friend Julia de Boinville to establish a platform promoting products crafted by these liberated women.
The cause was later brought to the UK where they met other individuals, including a modern slavery survivor named Seema, who further fueled their motivation. With a shared vision of eradicating modern slavery and human trafficking, Princess Eugenie and Julia founded The Anti-Slavery Collective in 2017. This initiative serves as a communal space for charities and organizations to gain knowledge about modern-day slavery and human trafficking while advocating for a world free from these atrocities.

About Princess Eugenie
HRH Princess Eugenie has been a champion in the fight against modern slavery since 2012. She has dedicated her time and efforts to advocating for those affected by this horrible crime, from speaking at international conferences to visiting survivors with the UN Trust Fund.
Princess Eugenie has also worked with leaders and organizations such as the McCain Institute, the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe’s Alliance, the US Ambassador-at-Large for Combating Trafficking in Persons, and Anti-Slavery International. Her dedication to the cause has even seen her help set up Key to Freedom, a social enterprise initiative that provides a route to market for products made by survivors of trafficking at the Women’s Interlink Foundation in Kolkata, India.
Together with her best friend Julia de Boinville, they proudly launched The Anti-Slavery Collective in 2017 after spending five years educating themselves about the global issue following their trip to India. The organization's powerful mission is to bring together change-makers and raise awareness to end the estimated 50 million people affected by modern slavery worldwide.
