Join me as I sit down with Shona River as she bravely shares her story of being trafficked into the American porn industry by LA Direct. Sadly, Shona's experience isn't unique. Many non-US citizen models, like her, are forced into this industry without proper permits and even coerced into illegal prostitution by their agents. This form of sex trafficking affects hundreds of victims, with every porn site profiting from their exploitation. It's time for change. By enforcing work visas for foreign models, the porn industry could put an end to this overnight. Let's spread awareness and work towards a safer environment for all models. Please share this video.
