DEFENDER AWARD RECIPIENT ROSE MUCKENTHALER NYPD/FBI CHILD EXPLOITATION AND HUMAN TRAFFICKING TASK FORCE R O S Rosemarie Muckenthaler has been a part of the New York Police Department for E 23 years and has worked with trafficking victims for 20 years. She has recovered M hundreds of missing children who were trafficked in New York City and has helped put away traffickers on both the state and federal levels. U Rose started as a patrol officer in the South Bronx and joined the Vice C Enforcement Division in the summer of 2000. It was there that she started K encountering victims who were forced into prostitution, at a time when the voices E of children of trafficking were not heard but instead were put into the system. She worked undercover from 2000-2006, walking the tracks of New York City in heels N for hours, an experience she says helped her start to understand the pain, both T literally and figuratively, of trafficking victims. H Rose's passion for working on trafficking cases comes from her belief that the A voices of survivors need to be heard. She has kept in contact with many of the L trafficking victims she has encountered over the years - her girls as she calls them. E Recently, a female named Silky King, whose case Rose had worked on when Silky R King was 13 years old, contacted her for the first time in years. Silky King is now 31, and the two shared a tearful reunion. B Rose's dedication to her girls knows no bounds. Recently, one called her crying I O because she didn't have any clothes for an upcoming job interview at a McDonald's in Queens. Rose went through her personal closet and found the perfect suit for her to wear for the interview - which resulted in a job offer. She was also the first female in the Vice Enforcement division to get a first grade in the history of the NYPD and was deemed a Human Trafficking expert by Honorable Judge Peter Velone. SURVIVOR ADVOCATE AWARD RECIPIENT TINA FRUNDT EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR/FOUNDER COURTNEY’S HOUSE T I N A F R U Tina Frundt has been actively raising awareness of the commercial sexual N exploitation of children (CSEC) since 2000. A high-profile national advocate on the D issue of domestic sex trafficking and a survivor of CSEC, Ms. Frundt is deeply committed to helping other children and youth, who are living through experiences T similar to her own. She has been featured on numerous national shows and B publications, including the OWN Network’s Our America with Lisa Ling: 3AM Girls, which featured an undercover look into sex trafficking in Washington, DC, the CNN I O Freedom Project, and in 2016 the Whitney Young Unsung Heroes award by the Urban Institute. In 2010, she became the first U.S. citizen to receive the Free the Slaves Freedom Awards-Frederick Douglas Award, which recognizes survivors of sex trafficking who use their life in freedom to help others. In 2016 she was appointed by President Obama to the First White House Survivor Advisory Board.

  • Profiles of Peace
    Profiles of Peace Forty short biographies of Israeli and Palestinian peace builders who have struggled to end the occupation and build a just future for both Palestinians and Israelis. Haidar Abdel Shafi Palestinian with a long history of working to improve the health and social conditions of Palestinians and the creation of a Palestinian state. Among his many accomplishments, Dr. Abdel Shafi has been the director of the Red Crescent Society of Gaza, was Chairman of the first Palestinian Council in Gaza, and took part in the Madrid Peace Talks in 1991. Dr. Haidar Abdel Shafi is one of the most revered persons in Palestine, whose long life has been devoted to the health and social conditions of his people and to their aspirations for a national state. Born in Gaza in 1919, he has spent most of his life there, except for study in Lebanon and the United States. He has been the director of the Red Crescent Society in Gaza and has served as Commissioner General of the Palestinian Independent Commission for Citizens Rights. His passion for an independent state of Palestine is matched by his dedication to achieve unity among all segments of the Palestinian community. Although Gaza is overwhelmingly religiously observant, he has won and kept the respect and loyalty of the people even though he himself is secular. Though nonparti- san he has often been associated with the Palestinian left, especially with the Palestinian Peoples Party (formerly the Palestinian Communist Party). A mark of his popularity is his service as Chairman of the first Palestinian Council in Gaza (1962-64) and his place on the Executive Committee of “There is no problem of the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) (1964-65).

  • Remarks Upon Receiving the International Rescue Committee's
    REMARKS OF SENATOR HUBERT H. HUMPHREY UPON RECEIVING THE INTERNATIONAL RESCUE COMMITTEE'S INTERNATIONAL FREEDOM AWARD Washington, D. C. August 4, 1977 It is a most humbling experience to J01n such a select group as the late Winston Churchill, Austrian Chancellor Bruno Kreisky, AFL-CIO leader George Meany, and my distinguished friend and colleague Jacob Javits in being honored with the International Rescue Committee's Freedom Award. The honor is particularly meaningful coming from an organization which has tirelessly devoted its efforts at easing the plight of millions of unfortunate people who have fled oppression worldwide. The International Rescue Committee was organized in 1933 to assist victims of Hitler's oppression in Germany. It was to have been only a temporary organization to meet the needs of what many had hoped would be a temporary phenomenon. Yet, sadly and tragically, the need for the International Rescue Committee did not end with the defeat of Nazi Germany. In fact, today the global situation has deteriorated to such an extent that there are more refugees fleeing political oppression than at any time in the history of man. The International Rescue Committee continues to be in the vanguard of those humanitarian organizations giving assistance to refugees. And many of the refugees assisted by the Committee have immigrated to the United States. This is as it should be. It is within our finest tradition as a nation. We have maintained fidelity to the hope inscribed on one of our greatest symbols of freedom and sanctuary -- the Statue of Liberty; that hope so eloquently stated by Emma Lazarus: "Give us your tired, your poor.
