Journalist Lisa Ling, host of National Geographic's Ultimate Explorer, travels the globe uncovering remarkable stories we all need to see. She didn't even have to leave the U.S. to find a secret underground world—child slavery. Thousands of young girls are brought into the U.S. from poor countries and placed as domestic help.

"They say that global trafficking and slavery is the biggest criminal enterprise in the U.S. after drugs and guns," Lisa says.
