Former Child Slave to Speak at Southeast

The student organization of Free the Slaves has invited James Kofi Annan, one of Ghana's leading figures in his efforts to eradicate child trafficking and slavery in his homeland, to the Southeast campus. A former child slave himself, Annan is highly esteemed in the international community as a speaker and activist.

The student organization of Free the Slaves is proud to join Annan in his efforts!
