Modern Day Slavery

Even though slavery is abolished  in all countries, it isn't really completely gone, as some people have "jobs" but they are practically working as slaves.  In countries like China, Vietnam, Thailand, Cambodia, and many countries in Africa, people work in horrid conditions for little pay.  They work in sweatshops and receive practically no pay, and are doing hours of labor in bad conditions, and get no bonuses or Unions to back them up, they have to work for their families and to survive.  Another type of slavery is another grim aspect in impoverished countries, the problem of human trafficking.  In places like Mexico, people pay most of their earnings to be brought illegally to America, and once they are here they might be subjected to harsh working conditions by their "guides" or traffickers, with threatens of being deported.  Luckily though, these modern types of slavery are recognized and national and international organizations, like the United Nations, who are trying to work with national governments to put an end to these sweatshops and trafficking practices.  Although we like to think that slavery is not around in America anymore it still might be around in other parts of the world.
