1256
面对现实吧,
01:02
there are thousands数千 of things that
corporate企业 America美国 could get involved参与 in.

有那么多事情美国的公司可以参与。
01:07
Sex性别 trafficking贩卖 seemed似乎 a little messy.
18
55080
3280
性交易看起来有点乱。
01:11
Little bit too difficult,
19
59280
1976
有点困难,
01:13
something that is better
left for someone有人 else其他.
20
61280
2440
最好交给别人来做。
01:16
But then I started开始 to understand理解 and learn学习
how big the problem问题 really is.
21
64400
6096
但是后来我开始意识到
这个问题有多严重。
01:22
And that it's rampant猖獗
in my company's公司 home town.
22
70520
3360
而且在我公司所在地非常猖獗。
01:27
I lived生活 and worked工作 in Atlanta亚特兰大 for years年份.
23
75200
2696
我在亚特兰大
工作和生活了很多年。
01:29
I practice实践 law here.
24
77920
1416
从事法律工作。
01:31
And yet然而, I had no idea理念
that the birthplace出生地 of my children孩子
25
79360
4176
而我并没有意识到,
我孩子出生的地方
01:35
is among其中 the most prevalent流行 cities城市
for sex性别 trafficking贩卖 in the US.
26
83560
4160
是全美性交易最普遍的城市之一。

01:50
That's more money that the city's城市的
illegal非法 gun and drug药物 trade贸易 combined结合.
29
98400
4720
这比全市非法枪支和毒品交易额
加起来还要大。
01:56
So we stepped加强 up
and we helped帮助 with the billboards广告牌.
30
104120
3416
于是我们挺身而出了,
赞助了公告牌。
01:59
But I couldn't不能 help feeling感觉
like it wasn't enough足够.
31
107560
2696
但我觉得这还不够。
02:02
The parent in me, the mother母亲 in me
needed需要 to do more.
32
110280
4040
作为家长,作为母亲,
我需要做得更多。
02:07
I started开始 talking to people about this
33
115680
1976
我开始跟大家讨论这件事,
02:09
and inevitably必将, I was surprised诧异,
34
117680
1856
不出所料,我被震惊了,
02:11
because the conversation会话
would turn from curiosity好奇心:
35
119560
3656
因为这些对话从好奇:
02:15
"Really? This happens发生 here?"
36
123240
2776
“真的吗?在我们这儿?”
02:18
to empathy同情: "Wow, we've我们已经 got
to do something about that."
37
126040
3400
到感同身受:
“哇,我们需要做点什么。”
02:22
To blame: "You're not telling告诉 me that
every一切 prostitute妓女 is a victim受害者, are you?
38
130199
5417
到谴责:“你不会想告诉我
每一个妓女都是受害者吧,是吗?
02:27
I mean, don't they know
what they're getting得到 into?"
39
135640
2976
难道她们不知道自己在做什么?”
02:30
I get it, I understand理解
why people are confused困惑.
40
138640
2536
我明白,我理解
为什么大家会觉得疑惑。
02:33
So, to be clear明确,
the people that I'm talking about
41
141200
3416
先澄清一点,我说的这些人
02:36
do not choose选择 this life.
42
144640
2816
并没有如此选择自己的人生。
02:39
They're forced被迫, defrauded骗取 or coerced裹挟.
43
147480
3656
他们是被强迫,
被欺骗或者被威胁的。
02:43
That's actually其实 the legal法律 definition定义
44
151160
2136
实际上这是联邦法律中
02:45
for human人的 trafficking贩卖
under federal联邦 law, for adults成年人.
45
153320
3576
对于成年人人口贩卖的法律定义。
02:48
Now, when it comes to kids孩子,
46
156920
2136
而对于儿童,
02:51
any minor次要 under 18 that's transported,
47
159080
4696
任何18岁以下的未成年人被运送,
02:55
facilitated促进 or used for commercial广告 sex性别,
48
163800
3136
促使或被用于商业性行为,
02:58
is automatically自动 a victim受害者.
49
166960
1936
就会自动成为受害者。
03:00
Regardless而不管 of whether是否
force, fraud舞弊 or coercion强迫 is used.
50
168920
4160
无论是否被强迫、
被欺骗或者被威胁。
03:05
This crime犯罪 knows知道 no age年龄,
gender性别 or socioeconomic社会经济 barrier屏障.
51
173880
6176
这种犯罪没有年龄、
性别或社会经济的区别。
03:12
I'm talking about the 16-year-old-岁 girl女孩
that I met会见 in Washington华盛顿, DCDC.
52
180080
4336
我在华盛顿D.C.
遇到了一个16岁的姑娘。
03:16
She had been trafficked贩卖
from the time she was 14 until直到 she was 16.
53
184440
4896
她在14-16岁期间被贩卖。
03:21
She was a victim受害者
of the foster培育 care关心 system系统.
54
189360
3296
她是寄养系统的受害者。
03:24
And she told me she'd been sold出售
up to five times a day.
55
192680
4600
她告诉我,曾经在一天
内被卖了5次。
03:30
She didn't even know
the term术语 "human人的 trafficking贩卖;"
56
198240
2376
她甚至都不知道
“人口贩卖”这个词,
她觉得,作为寄养的孩子,
这些就是她生活的一部分。
03:32
she thought that it was just
a part部分 of her life as a foster培育 care关心 kid孩子.
57
200640
3760
03:37
Sex性别 trafficking贩卖 also shows节目 up
in affluent富裕的 areas and gated门控 communities社区.
58
205880
4376
性交易在富人区也会出现。
03:42
And men男人 lure young年轻 girls女孩
into sex性别 trafficking贩卖 situations情况
59
210280
5336
男人引诱年轻女孩进行性交易,
03:47
with promises许诺 of modeling造型
contracts合同, cell细胞 phones手机.
60
215640
4016
以模特合约,手机作为条件。
03:51
Sometimes有时 they're just kidnapped绑架
right off the street.
61
219680
2560
有时候甚至在路边被直接绑走。
03:55
In the US, an estimated预计
200,000 to 300,000 girls女孩 and boys男孩
62
223680
6976
在美国,每年大约有
20-30万女孩和男孩
04:02
are anticipated预期 to be used
for commercial广告 sex性别 trafficking贩卖 every一切 year.
63
230680
5976
参与商业性交易。
04:08
You heard听说 that right -- girls女孩 and boys男孩.
64
236680
3936
你没听错,既有女孩也有男孩。
04:12
Worldwide全世界, the International国际
Labor劳动 Organization组织
65
240640
3656
全世界范围内,据国际劳工组织估算
04:16
estimates估计 that up to
one million百万 children孩子 a year
66
244320
3416
每年大约有100万儿童
04:19
are vulnerable弱势 for sex性别 trafficking贩卖.
67
247760
1736
极易受到性交易的侵害。
04:21
Those numbers数字 are huge巨大.
68
249520
2296
这是个巨大的数字。
04:23
And so while the billboards广告牌 are great
for raising提高 awareness意识 generally通常,
69
251840
4655
因此尽管公告牌对于
引起大众的警觉有很大作用,
04:28
they're just not enough足够
to put an end结束 to this problem问题.
70
256519
3497
但对于解决问题却远远不够。
我相信,如果我们正视性交易,
04:32
I believe that if we're going to be
serious严重 about sex性别 trafficking贩卖,
71
260040
4416
04:36
we can't legislate立法 or arrest逮捕 our way
out of modern-day现代 slavery奴隶制度.
72
264480
5416
我们就能立法或阻止
现代的奴隶制度。
04:41
If we really want to end结束
sex性别 trafficking贩卖 in the US,
73
269920
3296
如果我们真的想制止美国的性交易,
04:45
we have to systematically系统 educate教育
and target目标 demand需求.
74
273240
4496
我们需要系统地教育,认准需求。
04:49
And I think the business商业 community社区
is in the perfect完善 position位置
75
277760
3096
我觉得商界是最适合
04:52
to do just that.
76
280880
1760
来做这件事的。
04:55
So, sex性别 trafficking贩卖 is big business商业.
77
283640
2256
性交易是一门大生意。
04:57
And I'm proposing建议 a business商业 plan计划
that starts启动 with the customer顾客.
78
285920
4480
我会从顾客端开始提一个商业计划。
05:03
And in the sex性别 trade贸易,
the customer顾客 is referred简称 to as a John约翰.
79
291800
5056
我们假设性交易中的顾客叫约翰。
05:08
He is the man that fuels燃料 the demand需求
for sex性别 trafficking贩卖.
80
296880
4240
他这样的人刺激了性交易的需求。
05:15
Johns约翰斯 do not fit适合 into neat整齐 stereotypes定型.
81
303000
3536
约翰当然不是谦谦君子。
05:18
But there is one universal普遍 truth真相:
82
306560
2616
但有一个普遍真理:
05:21
no John约翰, no buyer买方, no victim受害者.
83
309200
3960
没有约翰,没有买家,
就没有受害者。
05:25
So if we want to start开始
to put a dent凹痕 in sex性别 trafficking贩卖,
84
313840
2656
所以我们如果想减少性交易的话,
我们就要找到约翰。
05:28
we have to get to John约翰.
85
316520
1376
05:29
And businesses企业 can do that
while he's at work.
86
317920
3800
只要他在工作,
就能通过公司找到他。
05:34
There's an organization组织 called
Businesses企业 Ending结尾 Slavery奴隶制度 and Trafficking贩卖,
87
322680
4336
有一个组织叫
“公司终结奴隶制和人口贩卖”,
05:39
or BEST最好 for short.
88
327040
1736
或者简称“BEST”。
05:40
And when they launched推出 in 2012,
89
328800
2336
他们在2012年成立的时候,
05:43
they did a study研究 of Seattle-based西雅图 Johns约翰斯.
90
331160
3136
针对住在西雅图的
约翰们做了项调查。
05:46
And you know what they found发现 out?
91
334320
1600
知道他们发现了什么吗?
05:48
Johns约翰斯 are everyday每天 guys,
employed就业 at local本地 businesses企业.
92
336680
5280
约翰们都是普通人,
在当地公司上班。
05:54
They range范围 in age年龄 from 18 to 84.
93
342880
4120
从18岁到84岁。
05:59
Johns约翰斯 are dads爸爸.
94
347920
1720
很多人都是父亲。
06:02
Johns约翰斯 have admitted承认 that they buy购买 sex性别
when they are traveling旅行 for business商业,
95
350640
4496
约翰们承认,
他们会在出差的时候,
06:07
when they're going to sporting运动的 events事件
96
355160
2456
会在看比赛的时候,
06:09
or when they're in the military军事.
97
357640
1640
或者在军队服役期间购买性服务。
06:12
But here's这里的 the kicker踢球者.
98
360120
2320
还有更惊人的。
06:15
BEST最好 study研究 determined决心
that web-based基于网络的 sex性别 buying购买
99
363360
4696
BEST的研究表明,
在网站上的购买行为
06:20
spikes钉鞋 at 2pm下午 in the afternoon下午.
100
368080
3800
在下午2点的时候达到峰值。
06:26
Which哪一个 means手段 that these Johns约翰斯 are likely容易
buying购买 sex性别 in the middle中间 of the workday劳动日.
101
374120
4360
也就是说这些人
基本上会在上班的时候下单。
06:32
I believe that there is a way to stop
Johns约翰斯 in the middle中间 of the workday劳动日
102
380720
6896
我认为有办法阻止这些人
06:39
from buying购买 sex性别.
103
387640
1616
在工作日下单。
06:41
And businesses企业 can do it
in three simple简单 ways方法.
104
389280
3136
公司可以用3种简单的方法
做到这一点。
06:44
The first is with a policy政策.
105
392440
2616
第一种是制定政策。
06:47
A policy政策 that clearly明确地 says,
106
395080
2896
明确规定,
06:50
the company公司 prohibits禁止
sex-buying性购买 during work,
107
398000
3416
公司禁止在工作期间购买性服务,
06:53
with company公司 resources资源 or on company公司 time.
108
401440
3680
使用公司资源或者占用工作时间。
06:57
That's right.
109
405960
1216
是的。
我的意思是,我们的工作手册上,
应该明确举例说明,
06:59
I'm saying that your handbook手册
has to specifically特别 give an example
110
407200
3096
出差期间禁止购买性服务,
07:02
that says no sex-buying性购买
while you're traveling旅行,
111
410320
2336
07:04
at the international国际 trade贸易 show显示,
because that's where it's happening事件.
112
412680
4080
比如在某次国际贸易节上,
因为那就是经常发生性交易的地方。
07:11
Now, a policy政策 is only as good
as its enforcement强制 and its communication通讯.
113
419880
5096
一项政策的好坏跟执行和传播有关。
07:17
Several一些 studies学习 have indicated指示 from Johns约翰斯
114
425000
2576
多项研究表明,
07:19
that the best最好 way to deter阻止 them
is public上市 humiliation屈辱 and embarrassment困窘.
115
427600
6336
对付约翰们最好的方式
就是公开的羞辱和难堪。
07:25
So, businesses企业 who catch抓住 Johns约翰斯 buying购买 sex性别,
116
433960
3776
因此,如果公司发现
约翰们购买性服务,
07:29
using运用 company-based基于公司 equipment设备
or company公司 resources资源,
117
437760
3776
使用的是公司的设备或者资源,
07:33
but cut them a break打破
or sweep it under the rug地毯
118
441560
2256
却只是放他们几天假
或者睁只眼闭只眼
07:35
and don't fire them,
119
443840
1816
不解雇他们,
07:37
are complicit同谋 in fueling加油 demand需求.
120
445680
2960
就是变相满足他们的需求。
07:45
Now, a policy政策 is one
of the best最好 ways方法 to start开始.
121
453400
2856
因此,制定政策
是最好的开始方式之一。
07:48
The second第二 way is educating教育 the workforce劳动力.
122
456280
2800
第二种方法是对员工进行教育。
07:51
Businesses企业 can go a long way
in simply只是 training训练 their workforce劳动力
123
459840
3736
公司可以长期对员工进行培训,
07:55
about the signs迹象 and the red flags
of human人的 trafficking贩卖.
124
463600
3456
告诉他们人口贩卖的征兆和危险信号。
07:59
This was my "aha!" moment时刻 for how
our company公司 could make a big difference区别.
125
467080
4336
这是我们公司
能发挥重大作用的关键时刻。
08:03
Our nation's国家 highways公路,
airports机场 and truck卡车 stops停止
126
471440
4376
我们国家的高速公路、
机场和货车站点
08:07
are literally按照字面 used
as modern-day现代 slave奴隶 routes路线.
127
475840
3440
被用作了现代的奴隶运输点。
08:12
Our company公司 has more than 100,000 drivers司机
128
