IJM is excited to announce their latest documentary, "At the End of Slavery" is coming in September 2009, and Quest Church will be hosting one of the FIRST screenings on Saturday, September 19 from 7-9pm.  Admission for the event is FREE, and the film screening will be accompanied by a presentation and Q & A with IJM's Vice President of Government Relations, Holly Berkhauter.

Narrated by Danny Glover, At the End of Slavery is a 31-minute documentary that takes you inside the ugly business of buying and selling human beings, from the brothels of the Philippines to the brick kilns of India – and, remarkably, leaves you with hope for a final end to this brutal trade. The film explores the link between today’s anti-slavery movement and the great historical battles for justice it follows, including the abolition of trans-Atlantic slavery and the victory of the civil rights movement in the United States.

We hope that "At the End of Slavery" will be a clarion call to every viewer to join the movement to end slavery in our lifetime!  Jn us at Quest to continue equipping ourselves for advocacy in our own contexts.

To volunteer for the film screening, contact Leah at leah@seattlequest.org
