      <image:caption>For this photo, I was escorted by women who had previously been enslaved themselves. They brought me down a narrow set of stairs leading to a green fluorescent-lit basement. This wasn't a brothel as such; it was a "cabin restaurants," as they are known in the trade -- venues for forced prostitution. Each has a small private room where slaves, some as young as seven, entertain and serve the clients, encouraging them to buy alcohol and food. These cubicles are small, dark, and dingy, each identified with a number painted on the wall, and partitioned by plywood and a curtain. The workers here often endure sexual abuse at the hands of the customers. Standing in the near darkness, I realized there was only one way out -- the stairs where I came in: no back doors, no windows large enough to climb through, no escape at all.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Child workers usually work from 1 a.m. to 5 a.m. on cold, windy nights to reel in nets weighing as much as 1,000 pounds when they are full of fish. Skeletal tree limbs submerged in Lake Volta frequently entangle the fishing nets, and and slave masters will throw weary, frightened children into the water to free the trapped lines, sometimes drowning them. I didn't meet one child who didn't know another who had drowned.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Fhanaian NGOs estimate that between 4,000 and 10,000 trafficked children are enslaved on Lake Volta, the largest man-made lake in the world. At first glance this image appears to be a family fishing in the lake, two older brothers and some kids. I was alarmed to learn that they were actually enslaved, working in plain sight. These children have been lost to their parents and are forced to work endless hours in boats on the lake, though they're unable to swim.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>There are triumphs, too. Meet Kofi, a young boy who was rescued from slavery in a fishing village. I met Khofi at a shelter where Free the Slaves rehabilitate victims of slavery. He was bathing at the well, pouring big buckets of water over his head. Thanks to the efforts of organizations like Free the Slaves, today Kofi has been reunited with his parents, who were provided tools to make a living and to keep their children safe from human traffickers.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Uttar Pradesh, India: Slaveholders burned down these people's villages after they declared their freedom. Many of the neighbors wanted to give up, they were so frightened -- but the woman in the center encouraged them to persevere. Abolitionists helped them get a quarry lease of their own. Now they do the same backbreaking work, but they at least get paid for it, and they do it in freedom.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In India I visited a village where whole families were enslaved in the silk industry. This is a family portrait. The father (hands in black) and his sons (hands in red and blue) are held captive in a "silk dyeing house." The dye they work with is toxic. It's common for entire families to be enslaved for generations. My translator told me their story. "We have no freedom," they said. "But we hope, some day, we will be able to leave this house and make dyes in a place where we actually get paid for it."</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Carol is based in Queensland Australia and has always been drawn to street photography, searching out the most colourful and quirky characters in her own environment. After studying documentary photography at college, she travelled to Yunnan, China to photograph the wide diversity of ethnic minorities in the region. However, over the past five years, her focus has shifted to Nepal and India. As someone who has always been drawn to unique and different cultures, India’s rich heritage and local traditions make it a haven for her style of photography.

      <image:caption>Michael is an undergraduate student at Haverford College, dodging the pandemic by taking a gap year. He writes in a variety of genres, and his time in high school debate renders political writing an inevitable fascination. Writing at Catalyst and the Bi-Co News, a student-run newspaper, provides an outlet for this passion.

      <image:caption>Muhammad was a student of computer technology, but had to suspend his studies because of the war. He fights for a Free Syria because he was thrown in prison and tortured after protesting against Assad, and because his house was hit and destroyed by a mortar. After Syria returns to peace, he hopes to finish his studies and maybe work in the new Syrian Army to rebuild the country. “What the people want will be. Injustice will not stay.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>When the uprising started, Muhanmen was an activist who protested against Assad's government. As the war dragged on, he and his friends lost patience with the regime and joined fighters with the Free Syrian Army. Speaking about Bashar Assad, Muhanmen says, "He doesn't listen. He just kills and takes people to prison. We will win or die."</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Abu is fighting for his family, and for Syrian soil. He thinks Bashar Assad and his government are terrible for the people of Syria and the nation's future. He is spurred to continue fighting because of how Assad and his forces have killed Syria's Muslims and defiled the mosques they occupy with sexual intercourse and the consumption of alcohol.</image:caption>

Recently injured by a mortar landing in his house, Makmood now has a piece of shrapnel in his torso and his finger is badly infected. He speaks very little English, but wants move to America someday. However, his expectations are tempered by the reality of daily life in Aleppo; he remarked calmly, "maybe after the war, I won't be alive."</image:caption>

      <image:caption>With four years remaining in his engineering studies, Abu Abbas joined the Free Syrian Army in the fight against Assad. He fights for the freedom and liberty of Syrian people, who he feels have been too long living under the oppression of Assad's government. He knows too many people from the cities of Mara and Idlib that have died -- some from bullets, others mortars, and others jets. When the war is over he hopes to continue his studies.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Arrested and tortured at the beginning of the revolution for protesting against the Assad regime, Becker is now on Jihad for the Muslims of Syria. Before the war he was a high school student, but left his studies to join the FSA. His parents didn't approve of him fighting at first, but are proud of him now after he explained how his religious convictions motivate his struggle. He is one of the most respected members of his militia, and his fellow fighters sometimes refer to him as their prince.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The Fairuz Mural in Gemmayzeh, Beirut. On Fairuz, Yazan said: “Fairuz is a national symbol of unity: she might be the only person the Lebanese agree that they love. She is a positive cultural figure. She was also one of my first portraits, I used her mural to cover some political posters that were still hanging from a number of years back. It is extremely interesting how much people identify with her. Photo by Yazan Halwani.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Yazan's image of what the Lebanese 100,000 LL bill would look like with Khalil Gibran, the Lebanese-American poet and author of “The Prophet”. “Apparently someone suggested this currency design to the head of the Central Lebanese Bank, from what I heard it was as quickly dismissed because of complications that might arise from adding Gibran to the note,” Yazan said.

      <image:caption>Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish in Hamra, Beirut. This mural was vandalized and Yazan decided to repaint it in Tunisia, where Darwish spent a part of his life. On Darwish, he said: “I personally love Darwish for his stance on the conflict in Palestine as well as his poetry. The first time I painted him was near the Hamra street, in a street he probably walked in back when he was in Beirut. Unfortunately someone chose to throw paint on his face. Instead of repainting it in the same spot, I choose to repaint it away from any vandal. I took Darwish to the streets of Tunisia, a country that has also welcomed him. I used a poem from Darwish that says “How can we be cured from the love for Tunisia” for my calligraphy.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>@watersaveslives Tarah finds her roots in Colorado. She has lived in South Africa, studied in Rhode Island, and now lives in Morocco. Itto, as some call her, is a soul-searching world traveler, photographer, writer, and Peace Corps volunteer based in Boumalne Dades, Morocco. As for the future, she has no idea who she will be, maybe a published author, maybe a coffee house owner, or maybe a forever vagabond.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Destination Travel Tools and Guides - Top Three Things to do in Mexico City - Michelle</image:title>
      <image:caption>Michelle da Silva Richmond is an award-winning travel journalist with more than 35 years of storytelling experience. A former travel editor of The News—Mexico’s daily English-language newspaper—she earned the prestigious Lowell Thomas Award from the Society of American Travel Writers (SATW) for “Best Travel Section.” During nearly two decades in Mexico City, she co-authored the Crown Insider’s Guide to Mexico, contributed to Fodor’s, Frommer’s, and Fisher’s guidebooks, and served as editor of Amigo magazine. As a longtime freelance writer, Michelle’s work has appeared in inflight magazines for American, Continental, and United Airlines, as well as in Travel &amp; Leisure, AAA World, Porthole, TravelAge West, the Hartford Courant, Bride’s, Bridal Guide, PeterGreenberg.com, and many more. She is also a regular contributor to USA Today 10Best and Afar.com. Her newsroom background includes writing a weekly travel column for Connecticut’s Middletown Press, reporting for the Glastonbury Citizen, and serving as editor of Avon Life. In 2024, Michelle published Fleeting Moments, a memoir chronicling her exhilarating years as a Pan Am stewardess—complete with globe-trotting adventures and a life-altering romance with two men on different continents. She is also the author of Travels with Mateo and Joe Mouse: A New England Fair, a whimsical children’s travel tale featuring a boy and his furry companion. Michelle is a longtime member of the American Society of Journalists and Authors, the Society of American Travel Writers, and the New York Travel Writers Association. Growing up abroad sparked her wanderlust early—and her bags are always packed.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Destination Travel Tools and Guides - Discovering Bali with Alternative Escapes Founder Ian - Japanese Ship Wreck Dive</image:title>
      <image:caption>Japanese Wreck Dive: When you are enjoying the quiet beaches of Amed and the wonderful diving, be sure to check out the Japanese Wreck Dive at Lipah Beach. This beach is about a 15-minute drive away from Amed Beach — you’ll only need to take a quick scooter ride to see an amazing reef and shipwreck. If you are a free diver or interested in learning, Amed is the place to be. Check out Apneista Free Diving and Yoga School for free-diving courses or workshops. If you are looking to stay overnight near the area, consider Eka Purnama Cottages (rates start at about US$22 a night), an affordable family-run hotel situated just steps away from the beach.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>USS Liberty Wreck: Snorkel, free-dive or scuba dive the amazing USS Liberty Shipwreck. Underwater for almost 50 years, the wreck has been taken over by natural corals and fish, proving it to be an unbelievable experience for marine enthusiasts. Book an outrigger canoe trip or dive with a snorkel school to reach the wreck.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Destination Travel Tools and Guides - Discovering Bali with Alternative Escapes Founder Ian - Amed, Bali.jpg</image:title>
      <image:caption>With views rivaling those in Big Sur or Santorini, drive the windy coastal road to or from Amed. Very few people do it, and it is one of the most scenic drives I have ever experienced anywhere. As the slow and windy road goes cove to cove, you can stop along the beautiful bays for perfect photo opportunities or sit back and admire the scenery.</image:caption>

Due to family circumstances, we were fortunate to have lived in many countries around the world, such as Thailand, Canada, and New Zealand. We finally came back to Japan about 10 years ago and are still having fun reconnecting with our roots ever since. Even though we are Japanese, with our backgrounds, we can also see Japan through the lenses of foreigners.

      <image:caption>Japanese Wreck Dive: When you are enjoying the quiet beaches of Amed and the wonderful diving, be sure to check out the Japanese Wreck Dive at Lipah Beach. This beach is about a 15-minute drive away from Amed Beach — you’ll only need to take a quick scooter ride to see an amazing reef and shipwreck. If you are a free diver or interested in learning, Amed is the place to be. Check out Apneista Free Diving and Yoga School for free-diving courses or workshops. If you are looking to stay overnight near the area, consider Eka Purnama Cottages (rates start at about US$22 a night), an affordable family-run hotel situated just steps away from the beach.</image:caption>
