Our Global Shame: Modern Day Slavery

'Consenting to slavery is a sacreligious breach of trust, as offensive in the sight of God as it is derogatory from our honor or intrest of happyness.'
John Adams (1735 - 1826)

If one of us is enslaved, the human race cannot truly be free.

How To Help End Slavery:
-Increase public awareness of human trafficking.
-Learn to recognize the signs of human trafficking so that you are able to notify relevant authorities.
-Support non-government organizations (such as Free The Slaves) that are working to end child slavery. Also support reducing poverty, as with less poverty there is less incentive for parents and others to sell children to traffickers.
-Lobby your government or representatives to pass anti-trafficking in persons laws and to do more to reduce trafficking and to increase support avalible to victims.
-Try to buy ethical products that are made by workers who recieved fair wages and working conditions.

Thanks for the video. People need to know that slavery exists in modern times, that is far more harsh than it was back then. That women and children make up a huge percentage of slaves today.

@robitsme Typical KKKracker always denying that blacks are the real slaves.

[kary213]

comparing to this inhuman way of living I think those are far less disturbing. Atleast you're living your life more or less the way you choose in a healthy manner.

[robitsme]

There are different levels of slavery. Slavery like the above video, and slavery, like in the west, where Government controls your whole life, finances, housing, the list is endless
