Sex Trafficking In West Sudan

The chilling screams and cries of 30 million women and children in sex trafficking. The silent agony of 30 million girls in China never to be heard or thought of. The horrors of 30,000 Darfuri men, women, and children slaughtered in Western Sudan. These are all current events. Sex Trafficking. Missing girls. Genocide. Horrific things that if they hit anywhere near close to home people would be doing everything in their power to end them, yet they are still all happening today because it might not be personal for someone. After something as infamous as Hitler’s holocaust it would be logical to assume that every person would feel a natural duty as a human to help end innocent people's suffering. Elie Wiesel was right to state that “human suffering
In reality, there is no possible way that a two year old girl in California could help a 50 year old man in West Sudan. She is too young to know what is going on and too young to do anything to help. Granted, once someone is educated about a terror in the world, it is their duty as a human to be concerned about it and speak out against it.

It can be a little kid watching his father beat his mother and not being able to help. In Elie’s case it is the mass genocide of harmless people. Unfortunately, society doesn’t view every type of suffering as equal or worth caring about. Many see eating disorders or depression as attention seeking and irrelevant. All human suffering deserves concern. It is not fair to judge someone else’s suffering without living in their world. No other human has the right to tell someone whether or not their suffering is worthwhile or not. This is the mindset along the lines of someone saying that a person can’t have a lousy day just because someone else has it worse than them. There are all types and severities of suffering, but they all deserve attention and care from people. The best way to help one’s suffering is in the form of concern: showing you care about them and doing what you can to
