Had an amazing time as usual at the night ruck 🏃🏾

The fight against sex trafficking is growing in the US

756,000 children go missing every year 😢

Last year in Liberty Lake, WA 15 sex offenders were arrested the week of this event. That’s straight up in my backyard 😡

Do what you can to not only keep your family and children safe but others in your life and community.

Speak up when you see something strange. 💪🏽 😤

Parents are you really listening to your child or just hearing? It’s important to listen before they seek the wrong person that will listen!

For those of you who want to add fuel to the fight, this is how we do it. 👊🏻

With just 200 people donating $20/month, The Innocent can equip and train 12 law enforcement agencies every month with the tools they need to go after online child predators.

That’s 144 agencies trained every year.

One small monthly donation. A massive collective impact.

Thank you to everyone who showed up at The Night Ruck to protect the innocence of children. Let’s keep this fire burning bright.

WHEN SYSTEMS FAIL TO PROTECT, FAITH CALLS US TO STAND. ✝️

We refuse to remain silent while children are exploited, victims are ignored, and families are left fighting battles they never should have faced alone.

Our faith is our foundation. Justice is our calling. God is our strength.

What was meant to break us, God turned into purpose. We rise from pain, stand for the voiceless, and fight for those who deserve to be heard, protected, and believed.

We don’t fight because the road is easy. We fight because doing nothing is NOT an option.

We stand on faith. We fight for justice. AND WE WILL NOT BACK DOWN. 👊🏼✝️

BOXING FOR JUSTICE
Restore. Rise. Lead.

AWARENESS PROTECTS. EDUCATION PREVENTS. VOICES MATTER.

📖 Isaiah 1:17 — “Learn to do good. Make justice your aim: redress the wronged.”

PROTECT KIDS 🧒 👶 👧

Some of the members from Redacted Fitness attended @thenightruck this past Friday evening. Really powerful event to be a part of. A somber, infuriating, yet hopeful message about combating child and human trafficking.

I don’t care who you are, what race, what religion you assign to, what background you have…1 in 3 girls will be solicited for s3x before 18 years old; 1 in 5 boys will be solicited for s3x before 18 years old.

This is unacceptable.

Everybody needs to be bold in confronting this problem. The buck stops with you.

It’s amazing to see organizations like @helpingcaptives and @theinnocent.usa in this community I live in (although only for a few years) working hard to not only help the survivors of these traumas but also proactively put these disgusting scum of human beings in jail before they can harm anybody else.

Honored to have attended and empowered to work more to help combat this global problem we have that does in fact show its ugly face here in Idaho. norrisforsheriff <—hope to see you show up next year

It’s an honor to lift you up Nate!

For those that want to do the same, dropping the numbers below.👇🏻

If 200 people commit to giving $20 a month, we can fund training for 12 agencies every single month, equipping law enforcement with the skills needed to conduct undercover operations targeting child predators.

That's 144 agencies trained every year.

Donate directly to The Innocent at: theinnocent.org

Until they are found.

The Night Ruck | Coeur d’Alene, Idaho

Last night, I had the opportunity to photograph The Night Ruck, an incredible event bringing our community together to raise awareness about child sex trafficking and sexual exploitation.

Now in its third year, this annual event brought people together at McEuen Park for a powerful 75.6-minute ruck march beneath the Idaho night sky. Participants walked in silence to honor victims and survivors and stand in unity to support the work of The Innocent and Helping Captives.

The sexual exploitation of human beings is one of the greatest sicknesses on this planet. And we need to stop pretending this is a problem happening somewhere far away, in Southeast Asia or some other distant corner of the world. This is happening right here in America. In our communities. And we are helping create the demand that fuels it.

We are not separate from the problem. We are part of it when we turn a blind eye, when we stay silent, and when we continue to feed the industry that exploits human beings for profit.

So if you watch porn, think about that. Supply and demand this is something I realized.
Every market exists because somebody is demanding a product. The demand for sexual content helps fuel an industry in which exploitation and abuse can thrive. The cartels and traffickers profit from a market that consumers help sustain. We cannot keep demanding it on one side and condemning trafficking on the other.

You cannot claim to stand against sexual exploitation while refusing to confront the demand that helps keep it alive. We have to be willing to look in the mirror, take responsibility for our choices, and stop pretending this evil has nothing to do with us.

I'm grateful I had the opportunity to document an event dedicated to confronting this reality and supporting the organizations doing the work to fight it. Thank you to everyone who showed up and stood for those who cannot always stand up for themselves.

Learn more and get involved through @thenightruck, @theinnocent.usa, and @helpingcaptives.

Everyday, thousands of children go missing. Some of those kids end up getting trafficked and sa’d. We as a community need to support both law enforcement and the victims in order to protect the you and let them keep their light!

☀️🏔️ That’s a wrap, Coeur d’Alene, Idaho! Night Ruck what a great time, great experience, and great people. Coming together in the fight against child sex trafficking, raising money for first responders, and keeping people aware of this major, major problem in our world.

Catching a 5 a.m. flight back east to Baltimore for one show, then flying home to Orlando Sunday morning. Thank you, Idaho! See you again next year! 🙌🏾
