Description
The book is a photo-essay featuring five American-born women who use their authentic voices to tell the story of their lives of sexual exploitation, prostitution, and restored hope. Woven throughout the book are poems written by five young American girls, ages 12-17, who have also survived the brutal and traumatic world of commercial sexual exploitation. They have become a voice for the voiceless of other untold stories, of girls who may not have had the courage and strength to speak their truth.
