Disney's hilarious ride through sex slavery

I think Minnie just lost an ear over this story. Ms. Magazine blog spotlights Disney poking fun at the sex slave industry. With as many as 4 million people–most of them women and children–are sold into slavery globally each year, according to the United Nations, and 70 percent of those women are trafficked for commercial sexual exploitation, the humor is lost on me.

Disney has unparalleled power to shape young hearts and minds. If the Pirates of the Caribbean ride normalizes sexual slavery with humor, it can desensitize viewers to this heinous and very real gendered crime.
