Exercise #10a:
Modern slaves today:
As compared to previous eras of slavery, we must admit that the position of slavery is at better state. Due to abolition of slavery and following events, is that there are no countries in the UN that trade or acknowledge the legality of slavery. The modern concept of slavery has been reduced to criminal organizations. Majority of modern slaves work in the sex industry and under the cover of cheap labor. The trouble with cheap labor is that there are many instances the workers arent even paid. However these situations are always contained but after the human cost of suffering.
According to the website, Slavery Footprint, I have 29 slaves working for me. I find the number shocking and gave me a good awareness that I am actually contributing to the trade without even realising.
