PRESENTATION OUTLINE
Modern day slavery is a problem that needs to be addressed; information on how, why,and at what scale it exists needs to be known.
How does modern day slavery exist?
Modern day slavery works a bit differently than old slavery. Its victims are bound, not by actual chains, but by the bonds of their own extreme vulnerability. That is caused by addiction, poverty,youth, or unstable immigration status.( the U.K.'s slave shame; Mclareh Leatt )
this shows that the outlawing of slavery has abolished only one type of slavery. slavery today has evolved into something very different that what it was before. its now less known and harder to see.
Why does modern day slavery exist?
Modern day slavery is the only choice for some people. In many rural counties the poor turn to prostitution to provide money for their families. Some however go into prostitution for money to feed their addictions.
( Nefarious: Merchant of souls )
This is not how things should be no one should have to sell themselves to survive. and no one with an addiction should have to do things like this to feed their addiction, where as they should be seeking help they have not gotten.
Pimps who get women into prostitution, one of the forms of modern day slavery, usually do it with promises of work, or love. There are also more violent cases where women are outright abducted( Nefarious: Merchant of souls )
these people take the hopes for a future, or the longing for love of their victims and use it to control them.
How large is Modern day Slavery
Modern day slavery is very big. 36 million people around the wold live in some form of modern slavery.( Sfferlen Alexandra, Times ) the very fact that this many people are affected should show how wide modern slavery is.
The amount of money made just in the sex trafficking industry is about 32 billion. ( U.N.O.D.C. ) also as you can see it has become very profitable
This is the state of modern day slavery it takes advantage of some, others go to it in desperation, and it is very widespread.
