Call + Response “reveals the world’s 27 million dirtiest secrets: there are more slaves today than ever before in human history...it goes deep undercover where slavery is thriving from the child brothels of Cambodia to the slave brick kilns of rural India to reveal that in 2007, Slave Traders made more money than Google, Nike and Starbucks combined.” The film features amazing performances from artists such as Matisyahu, Natasha Bedingfield, Imogen Heap, Talib Kweli, Moby and Cold War Kids. It also features a lot of insight and interviews with Madeleine Albright, Julia Ormond, Cornel West, Nick Kristoff, David Batstone and Gary Haugen.

Music is part of the movement against human slavery. Dr. Cornel West connects the music of the American slave fields to the popular music we listen to today, and offers this connection as a rallying cry for the modern abolitionist movement currently brewing.

Special performance by Melanie Medalle and presentation by Elena Clariza and the Pacific Alliance to Stop Slavery (PASS) precedes the film.
