RSVP78, Unfortunately it isn't truly "abolished", it is alive & well under different terminologies, circumstances, customs, traditions, the dark underground, major business, etc.

Player #29684811, that’s because most young people today are not being taught well enough in schools. I watched a YouTube video of college students unable to answer these questions. How many dimes equal a dollar? How many states are in the US? What is 3 times 3 times 3? When is Independence Day? Scary and sad.

pchezz, No, anyone can/could be a slave. Some slaves were white people too.

abobo, why cannot you accept that slavery was only for Africans on America. Many Americans are very touchy about their history. they have killed indigenous people, they oppressed Africans, Chinese were welcome until the railways were constructed then America tried to kick them out, in 1882 with a law. know your history!

It was never abolished, only transformed into the prison industrial complex, due to a tiny clause in the 13th amendment and a lot of propaganda that was used to fill the prisons.

K O T K, but only African slavery was in America. and when importation was banned, slaves were forcibly bred to increase the enslaved population to gain free labour.

The "modern day slave" is of 1 of 2 kinds. One is for kink & the other is a worldwide, dehumanizing & midlevel practice, that needs desperately to end, however highly doubtful it will in my remaining universal time, realm of reality & plane of existence.

Slavery actually happened back in Biblical times in Egypt and in Moses's time

RSVP78, Precisely why statues in the UK that honour people who had big connections with the slave trade should be removed.
