Midnight Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 http://news.yahoo.com/27-million-people-living-slavery-us-070112851.html In rememberance of slavery and the Juneteenth festival, I have posted this article. People often do not realize that slavery has not ended, but instead became more sophisticated; kind of like the drug trade. Hope you enjoy the read and it opens up your mind to think about things differently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecoban Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 The website slaveryfootprint.org created in a collaboration between anti-slavery nonprofit Call + Response and the State Department’s Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons, calculates how many slaves work for you. By choosen survey, you have to answer a number of questions, (home, age, kids, food, medicine, gadgets, clothing, jewelry, paid sex). It reminds us of things we know but which we do not think every day. http://slaveryfootprint.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 Ecoban, thank you for sharing. My professor that I followed through college, was interested in slavery in prehistoric humans and current times and the evidence left on the skeletal evidence. So it's always been on the front burner for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
