Lesson Plan Clip 1 | The Rescue List
We’re introduced to Edem, a 12-year-old boy who was sent to work on Lake Volta at age seven, and Kwame, a rescuer and formerly trafficked child. Edem tells us he was unable to attend school while working for his slave master. Kwame, as he rescues kids on the lake, describes his job as both a calling and a responsibility.
