In this episode, we explicitly explore how the twelve Black girls disappearances from North Carolina mirror textbook signs of mass trafficking operations in under protected. . .
Welcome back to the Black Butterfly Podcast, where we dive deep into the Black Girls Missing Series. In this episode, we shine a light on the troubling pattern of 12 Black girls who vanished in North Carolina between December 2024 and February this year. Despite the suspicious circumstances, these cases remained underreported, underscoring systemic neglect.
We uncover the alarming statistics that place North Carolina among the top states for human trafficking, yet the state lacks protective measures like the Ebony Alert. The discussion highlights how traffickers exploit the silence and indifference of systemic failures, drawing attention to the urgent need for policy change and coordinated efforts to address these high-risk disappearances as potential trafficking rings.
Join us in demanding the implementation of a federal Ebony Alert System and reclassification of disappearances to ensure Black girls are not labeled as runaways.
