Slavery might not seem to people to be a problem today. However it is not a thing of the past. Slavery has been around throughout the world's history and the US's history. Slavery is a modern conflict as well. Seven people were rescued from slavery as part of an operation by the Lincolnshire Police. Seven men were arrested as well as another six and a women as part of the operation. Seven people were rescued from this case of modern slavery and are now in the care of Adult Care teams. Slavery is a huge problem. We never really hear about it in the news, because when we think of slavery, we think that it was abolished back after the Civil War. However, it is still a problem. It is still ongoing. People are being forced into labor and cannot escape. What should be done to prevent slavery? How and why is it still going on?
This article is very intresting regarding how slavery is still existant in our time. As of now slavery and racial discrimination is very uncommon because nowadays we do not see it as a right thing to do in society. It is very disgusting and disturbing how these actions are still alive today and how it has not completley dissappeared. I hope the seven people who were arrested know and make an example that what they are doing is insanely wrong and should not be practiced by other people.
ReplyDeleteI happy that these people were found and are now getting the help from Adult Care teams. I can not imagine people who still believe slavery is okay even though it is illegal. The worst thing about slavery is that you are hurting people physically and emotionally. People who still enslave people are taking away their freedom. Our Constitution says that all men are created equal and the fact that years after it was written people are still not understanding why America was founded. Preventing slavery from happening is hard because some people are strong believers, but sticking to your beliefs and morals and sharing that with other people can help people understand that slavery is unacceptable.
ReplyDeleteI believe that slavery is still continuing because the past never really ends. It's amazing how perspectives about slavery have changed, but there are still several people out there who still have the opinion that slavery is right or not immoral. This can be changed with raising awareness about it. This way people will become more conscious of their surroundings and willing to contribute to an effort in trying to diminish it. However, I still believe that slavery will take a very long time to slow down, and I think that slavery will always be a part of at least one person's mindset or beliefs - in saying this, slavery will never completely be over.
