Recommendation
Many may find Kevin Bales’s presentation disturbing and difficult to watch. Although most countries had abolished slavery by the end of the 19th century, the practice persists in every nation, bar none. Bales, an antislavery campaigner, relates several harrowing stories of contemporary slavery at work and describes the destruction such cruelty wreaks on communities and the environment. getAbstract suggests Bales’s account to policy makers and philanthropists, as well as to consumers, who have a social responsibility to be informed and to make ethical purchasing decisions.
