TODAY'S ABOLITIONIST MOVEMENT
“The world’s largest consulting firm has teamed up with Free the Slaves to tackle one of history’s greatest challenges: the eradication of slavery.”
This image represents a slave in need of assistance to escape slavery, reaching out for freedom from his or her captor’s cruelty. The key to this “freedom” is through the help of others by spreading the word about these illegal actions.
Background Information:
A slave is someone who is forced to work for someone in return for nothing usually through mental or physical threats to do things for example, a captor forces you to farm for him or her for free and if you didn’t you would be punched or stabbed, forcing you to do whatever they want. Slavery affects people of all ages, races, and gender. Slavery has lasted for over 89 years in America from 1776 to 1865. Even though slavery has ended years ago in the 19th century, according to the International Labour Organisation (ILO) there are still around 21 million slaves worldwide today.
