“Invisible: Slavery Today” discussion on Oct. 27

Kathleen Davis, “Invisible: Slavery Today”

Whitley Auditorium, 7:30 p.m.

We are living in the midst of a tragic paradox: No longer is there an underground railroad that guides slaves to freedom, but rather, there is an underground criminal network to entrap people and sell them into slavery. Until confronted, this grave human rights violation will continue to plague the world and feed off vulnerable men, women, and children.

Davis is the director of Contemporary Slavery Programs at the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center in Cincinnati, Ohio.
