Product Description

Review
"Just as 19th century slave narratives forced readers to admit the humanity of slaves, the stories in Enslaved force us to admit that slavery still exists."--Gloria Steinem "Slavery still exists--hidden and virulent--in many countries, including this "land of the free." In "Enslaved: True Stories of Modern Day Slavery," Jesse Sage and Liora Kasten of the American Anti-Slavery Group--an organization I know well as a reporter--offer a riveting illumination of this most under-publicized human rights abuse."
--Nat Hentoff, Columnist, "The ""Washington"" Times "and "Village Voice" "" "Poignant, powerful, and deeply disturbing. The voices of these survivors resonate loudly with The Museum of the African Diaspora, a first-voice museum, committed, as one of its goals, to sharing stories of enduring courage in its Ernest A. Bates, M.D. Slavery Passages exhibit. This book is important in that it not only gives voice to victims of modern day slavery, but also because it provides steps that the active reader can take to help eradicate these modern day enslavement practices."
--Denise Bradley, Executive Director, Museum of the African Diaspora "As was true before our Civil War, nothing is more important than the abolition movement. It is no longer domestic; it is now international. The darkness of the slave trade and the brightness of the concerned human spirit is made clear in this volume--for all who would know how far we have come and how far we have to go."
--Stanley Crouch, Columnist, "New York"" Daily News"

Synopsis
Twenty-seven million people are estimated to be held in slavery around the world today. This collection of first-hand accounts will raise awareness and show how slavery is thriving in the twenty-first century. From poverty-stricken countries to affluent American suburbs, slaves toil as sweatshop workers, sex slaves, migrant workers, domestic servants and chattel slaves. This groundbreaking collection includes accounts written by ten former slaves and slave holders in Southeast Asia, Africa, the Middle East and the United States. From Micheline, a Haitian girl who wound up as a domestic worker in Connecticut, to Abdel, a Sudanese slave owner turned abolitionist, these are stories that will heighten awareness of a global human rights crisis that can no longer be ignored.
