Chanmony

Many Cambodian children lack access to education, which, along with severe poverty, makes them vulnerable to human trafficking. But compassionate organizations, like Agape International Mission (AIM), raise awareness and protect those vulnerable to trafficking. Chanomy* was trafficked in Cambodia before AIM answered her cry for freedom. Today, she is one of the many voices calling for the end of modern-day slavery through the Faces of Freedom Art Exhibit.*Pseudonym Artist Michelle Philip, an attorney and artist, uses digital art to convey the fierce image of a tiger on Chanmony to illustrate the courage it will take to walk in a path of healing and justice. “I had reasoned this out in my mind; there was one of two things I had a right to, liberty or death; if I could not have one, I would have the other, for no man should take me alive; I should fight for my liberty as long as my strength lasted, and when the time came for me to go, the Lord would let them take me.” - Harriet Tubman
