As long as people and/or governments have a need for power and control over other human beings Lorne, in order to achieve their goals whether they be financial or political we will always have slavery. The enslavement anywhere, of human beings by other human beings, and if it still exists in the 21st century, then it is a prelude to another dark age. We are living in a precivilization. That is a very powerful picture. thx. for posting.
There are many forms of enslavement, Pamela; without question, however, the experience that black people have had with it in its various forms is both tragic and searing.
That was certainly jarring. Very, very powerful. Thanks for posting this, Lorne.
ReplyDeleteI had the same reaction when I saw it, Mound.
