The project, first launched by Molly Gochman in 2014, is a “participatory art installment designed to shed light on human trafficking." Red sand, placed in sidewalk cracks, draws attention to the human trafficking victims who "fall through the cracks" of society daily. An estimated 40.3 million individuals live in slavery, whether in forced marriages, forced labor, or sexual exploitation.
If you know someone who needs help to escape trafficking, contact the Tennessee Human Trafficking Hotline at 1-855-558-6484.
