You got to remember that slavery's very complex. It has a lot of levels to it.
Slavery is something that is all too often swept under the carpet.
I can speak of slavery only so far as it came under my own observation - only so far as I have known and experienced it in my own person.
Slavery is the first step towards civilization. In order to develop it is necessary that things should be much better for some and much worse for others, then those who are better off can develop at the expense of others.
Slavery is something that is all too often swept under the carpet. The shame doesn't even belong to us, but we still experience it because we're a part of the African race. If it happened to one, it happened to all. We carry that burden.
The issue isn't just jobs. Even slaves had jobs. The issue is wages.
I believe that modern slavery is the most outrageous assault on the rights of an individual. It is something that touches me deeply because I grew up in rural Brazil and could see first-hand how poverty forced people to work in harsh, exploitative conditions.
This is slavery, not to speak one's thought.
The poor despise labor when performed by slaves.
The state of slavery is in its own nature bad.
