Slavery

  On May 23, 2012, I went with Golden Ciphers to the Underground Railroad Freedom Center in Cincinnati, Ohio.
  At the museum I learned what slaves had to go thru.  Africans where taken from their homeland, marched across fields on foot, and put on a slave ship bound for the Americas.  There was very little room on the slave ships.  Slaves crouched in the holds with no where to lay down or go to the bathroom.  They sat there in their own waste.  Conditions where so bad that the slaves jumped ship knowing it was better than slavery.
  When the slaves got to the Americas the where auctioned off by slave traders to the highest bidder.  Babies and Children were ripped from their mothers arms and families seperated! Slave traders made around $800,000 a year!
  Slavery was abolished by most countries (America being one of them), but its still going on!  Some types of slavery are: Sex slaves, Child Slodiers, Forced laborers, and many more.  The ones mentioned don`t happen as much in America (as far as I know) but there is slavery.  A couple of the ones in America are Threats and Fraud.
  This was suprising.  I knew that in  some countries (like India for one) there was still slavery, but it amazed me that its still going on in America.  I thought it terrible that people don`t know and that is what this post is for, to inform you what is still gonig on in the world.  When we don`t think its possible.
  What do think?  Is there anything you would add to this?  Please tell me so I can inform more people.
