This is a reminder to all IRC members and the public of our upcoming IRC-sponsored events.
First up:
"Human Trafficking: Hidden in Plain Sight" Sept 1st, 7:00 PM at All Souls Unitarian Universalist Church, 4501 Walnut, Kansas City MO
Timea Eva Nagy was an accomplished young professional in her native Hungary. When she immigrated to Canada in 1998 looking for a summer job, she found herself stripped of her identification and pressed into servitude. Though she eventually escaped, she spent the next six years working to piece her own life back together and bring her captors to justice. She will tour Kansas City with retired FBI agent Jeff Lanza, speaking about her experiences and calling for more education and prevention of human trafficking.
