Man travels to India to help Women

         Hey all! I am back to talk about a very interesting article that I recently read, which I have linked above. This article titled Former NY Met and current Toronto Blue Jay R.A. Dickey tells story of his journey to rescue India's youth from horrors of sex slavery, was a very touching story because Dickey made the trip with his two daughters to India to work with Bombay Teen Challenge (BTC) in the efforts to slowly end sex slavery. These women are usually promised jobs as either a housekeeper or seamstress but then they end up getting locked in a small room being a sex slave. I read this article because it reminded me of the current book we are reading for our World Literature class, The Waiting Years, the article reminded me of this book because in the book Shirakawa has concubines. Which concubines are women kept by a rich man for sexual purposes. Not only does he have these concubines but he has his wife who he was no longer interested in find them for him. I believe Fumiko Enchi the author of this book wrote it to make a point that women should not have to live like that they should not have to be someones slave, which is also what Dickey is trying to get stopped in India. I am glad that this issue is getting better in the world but it is still a problem that needs to disappear.
