ISBN10: 1403974934, ISBN13: 9781403974938, [publisher: St Martin's Press, New York] Softcover Paperback. Today millions of people are held in bondage around the world. This highly acclaimed collection of modern-day slave narratives - by seven former slaves and one slaveholder - exposes the shocking reality of how human trafficking thrives in the twenty-first century. From poverty stricken countries to affluent American suburbs, slaves toil as sweatshop workers, sex slaves, migrant workers, and domestic servants. These personal and harrowing accounts will heighten awareness of a global human rights crisis that can no longer be ignored. An estimated 27 million people are held in slavery around the world today. Owned like animals by masters, they toil as forced sweatshop workers, sex slaves, migrant workers, domestic servants, and chattel slaves. This collection brings those cries to public attention, and will convince readers that slavery is in fact a modern-day problem.
