Written by . Published: September 21 2012
Alicia Keys and Pink are among the stars who have recorded poetry readings as part of a new campaign against human trafficking.
The two singers, along with actress Jada Pinkett-Smith, have filmed Public Service Announcements (PSAs) as part of the mtvU Against Our Will Campaign.
They all read out poems written by women who have survived the
ordeal of trafficking - Keys recites a piece called Pimps, while
Pink tackles I Remember and Pinkett-Smith voices Nightlife.
The campaign has been launched in conjunction with Girls
Educational and Mentoring Services (GEMS), an organization which
aims to raise awareness amongst students about prostitution and
modern-day slavery.
