Contemporary Slavery in America


Slavery is a system which requires workers to work against their will for little to no compensation. In modern-day terms, this practice is more widely referred to as human trafficking. Human trafficking is defined by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime as “the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harboring or receipt of persons, by means of the threat or use of force or other forms of coercion, of abduction, of fraud, of deception, of the abuse of power or of a position of vulnerability or of the giving or receiving of payments or benefits to achieve the consent of a person having control over another person, for the purpose of exploitation”.〔United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime. (n.d.). Retrieved April 24, 2014, from https://www.unodc.org/unodc/en/human-trafficking/what-is-human-trafficking.html?ref=menuside〕 The practices of slavery and human trafficking are still prevalent in modern America with estimated 17,500 foreign nationals and 200,000 American children being trafficked into and within the United States every year with 80% of those being women and children.〔Human Trafficking. (n.d.). Retrieved April 23, 2014, from http://www.humantraffickinged.com/〕 Human trafficking in the United States can be divided into the two major categories of labor and sex trafficking, with sex trafficking accounting for a majority of cases.〔Internet Archive: Wayback Machine.

==History==
In 1865, the American Civil war was ended and the Emancipation Proclamation took full effect. This freed the slaves in all parts of the reunited country. Later that same year, the 13th Amendment was passed, therefore officially outlawing the practice of slavery.〔Prologue: Pieces of History. (n.d.). Retrieved April 24, 2014, from http://blogs.archives.gov/prologue/?p=114088〕 A second section of this amendment allowing the government to enforce and pass laws to ensure the 13th amendment was upheld, but the ultimate end to the practice of slavery as defined by the amendment took many years to become realized, with many alternative forms of slavery still being practiced (i.e. sharecropping, peonage, convict leasing).〔Explore PBS.
