More people enslaved today than ever before
Most people think that slavery only happened long ago, but actually there are more people enslaved today then there ever have been. Even though it’s illegal everywhere, there is an estimate of 27,000,000 slaves worldwide. Slavery types are debt bondage and forced labor. Even when slavery was legal in the U.S., there weren’t as many slaves as there are today. An example from a text shows that slavery is still around.
