This is the second new clip for the PBS / Half The Sky series, in which Meg talks about Somaly Mam, NY Times journalist Nicholas Kristoff and using fame to raise awareness for issues like this.


“Meg Ryan meets Somaly Mam, a Cambodian human rights and anti-sex trafficking advocate dedicated to ending the epidemic of sexual slavery. After encountering a girl whose infected eye wound made her “undesirable” to clients and led to her eviction from the brothel, she describes the importance of using celebrity to raise awareness of these issues.”
