It’s been over 200 years since Great Britain abolished the TransAtlantic Slave Trade - yet human trafficking continues today. Haiku Middle Passage is an artistic collaboration between poetry, visual art, and music with the purpose of reflection and action that result in discontinuing Modern Day Slavery. The exhibit shows a collective historical experience that mirrors an unacceptable present but predicts a more humane future. The exhibit goal is 200 exhibitions (and is always looking for sites).

MM, this is my favorite by far. I see the connection with middle passage, but also has appeal for so much more.
