Sex Industry Slavery

"Well written and detailed, Sex Industry Slavery is presented from the perspectives of those that have been there, this book provides the reader with an insider’s insight into Canada’s sex industry. This is a compelling book that brings to life the tragic role of the victim while illuminating the darkness of those that act as predators, exploiting the vulnerable. With his extensive experience in policing, Robert Chrismas provides an excellent account of the challenges and complexities associated with confronting sexual exploitation and trafficking. Chrismas’ work serves to provide valuable findings and recommendations in protecting Canada’s youth while paving a pathway to community reform."

"Robert Chrismas explores the trafficking of young Aboriginal women through the eyes of survivors, police officers, social workers, youth workers, and policymakers. The book provides excellent empirical research to explore a multi-modal and multi-level intervention system’s approach that addresses the trafficking of young Aboriginal women in Manitoba. This sophisticated, well written, engaging, and very analytical book broadens Peace and Conflict Studies theory building and praxis, and it is a must read for anyone interested in missing and murdered Aboriginal women."
