Episode 13 Features a keynote speech from the 2024 North America Regional Freedom from Slavery Forum titled Moving Freedom Forward: Challenges and Opportunities in the Global Movement to Abolish Slavery.
In this keynote from the North American Freedom From Slavery Forum, historian and abolitionist Timothy Patrick McCarthy explores the power of grassroots movements in the fight against slavery. He emphasizes how technology has long played a crucial role in amplifying these efforts but reminds us that technology should be seen as a tool-not the solution. At the heart of every movement are people, and McCarthy highlights the importance of keeping human dignity and inclusion at the forefront as we harness digital tools to drive real change.
