So this is a heavy topic, but there’s a lot of love and a lot of heart that’s going to be brought to it, so please stay tuned with us. Let me tell you a little bit about Regina before we dive in.

Regina Y. Evans is a modern day Abolitionist in the fight against Child Sex Trafficking, a Social Justice Playwright, Actor, and Poet. She is the founder of Virginia’s Door, an Oakland based vintage store which operates as a creative arts healing space for young survivors of sex trafficking and a co-founder with Amara Tabor Smith of Conjure and Mend, a sewing salon created for young survivors of sex trafficking, to learn the art of costuming.

I am so thrilled to have you on the show here with us today, Regina.

Thank you.

Yes. So as I mentioned, this is a deep topic. You have so much of a depth of wisdom that I want to bring forward for our listeners and I’m just going to go to a quick break before we do that, so we don’t have to interrupt it.

Before we go to break though, will you tell everyone what your superpowers are?

My superpowers are my writing pen, my level of patience which I get, I think probably, generationally, and I’m a conjurer. So I’ll say that lastly. But my pen, my writing, my letters, that’s my first superpower.

I love it. I love it, a woman after my own heart. So in many ways, from what we were discussing before.

And will you give our listeners where they can go to find out more about you and the amazing work that you’re doing in the world that we’re going to tell everyone about after the break here?

Yes. You can find me on @reginasdoor, either on Instagram or on Facebook. Those are the best places to find out about what I’m doing.

Awesome. So we’re talking with Regina Evans. Real talk about child sex trafficking. Don’t go away, this is such an important conversation and we’ll be right back.
