Arizona State professor says stopping sex trafficking is

Human trafficking is one of the major issues in illegal immigration at the U.S. southern border (not to mention the world), and one of the big reasons humans are trafficked into the U.S. is so they can be pimped out as sex slaves.

64% of the women trafficked for exploitation are forced into sex slavery. It might be tempting to think that we could all agree that this practice is abominable, but no.

To give you the scale of the problem, the Biden administration has lost track of 300,000 children who were trafficked into the U.S. over the past few years.

Meet Arizona State University Professor Crystal Jackson, who goes by they/she pronouns. She looks exactly like you pictured here.

As a campus-sponsored “Queer X Faculty Flashtalks” event, Jackson,

… condemned the ‘anti-trafficking movement’ and ‘deviant framing’ of ‘sex workers’.

Jackson also argued that efforts to stop human trafficking are anti-immigrant, racist, and homophobic:

‘At the turn of the 21st century … there was this moral panic about the “white sex slavery trade,” which is not happening. It’s anti-immigrant, it’s racist, it’s transphobic forms of policing, particularly around women of color,’ Jackson said.

‘It co-opts sex workers’ liberatory language and … co-opts the racial justice abolitionist language,’ she said.

In published scholarship, Jackson argues that we should get rid of our anti-human trafficking laws like the Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (FOSTA) and the Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA).

What does Jackson suggest should replace these protections for women being sold into sex slavery?

Legalize the sex trade.

Okay maybe it was “sex work,” but there’s really no difference.

Let me explain:

With legalized sex work, instead of illegally trafficking women and girls from other countries into the U.S. as prostitutes, lecherous Americans could sponsor them with work visas and import their sex-slaves legally.

And I’m not making that up; it’s an actual argument being made by the “legalize sex work” activists.

The sex workers’ movement demands full decriminalization of sex work, but this will only help sex workers already permitted to work unless migrants are also provided with labor and residence rights.

Just imagine how this will work for a moment:

Sex work is legalized, so a pimp (now a legal company) sponsors some poor foreign girl to get a work visa as a prostitute.
She comes to the country and gets thrown into a brothel.
Not being what she thought it was, she decides she doesn’t want to do this sort of “work” and threatens to quit.
But her pimp threatens to contact the government and have her deported if she does (the same threat they level against illegally trafficked women).

And the real kicker is that if the legal prostitute leaves the job she’s sponsored for, she would be. Whereas the trafficked woman could get some protections under our current trafficking laws.

The same laws Professor Jackson wants repealed.
