US adds Bissau to Human Trafficking Blacklist

Today the US government added Guinea-Bissau to it's "Human Trafficking Blacklist" which is a list of countries that may receive US sanctions due to human trafficking.

The unfortunate victims that Erica and I will be working with as we build and run an orphanage are in part caused by this lack of protection. Hopefully this will eventually influence the direction of Bissau for the better.
