Description
The Arab State covers a region of 11 countries. One article reported the following: “On any given day in 2016, an estimated 520,000 men, women, and children were living in modern slavery in the Arab States. This is a prevalence of 3.3 victims per 1,000 persons. When considering the forms of modern slavery, the largest share of those in modern slavery were victims of forced labour (2.2 victims per 1,000 people), while the rate of forced marriage was 1.1 victims per 1,000 people.” Modern day slavery is alive and well and this includes but is not necessarily limited to: human trafficking, forced labor, debt bondage/bonded labour, descent–based slavery, slavery of children, forced and early marriage. Slavery – no one wants to talk about it much less like it.
The word “slave” is often bantered about in a flippant manner. For example, “I am a slave to my work.” “I work like a slave.” “Our boss treats us likes slaves.” “The place they work in is like a slave factory.” I believe you get the point!
Besides what has already been mentioned, there is another form of slavery that the world is unaware of. . . . .
