Slavery does not legally exist in the United States.  The 13th Amendment to the United States Constitution was ratified 6 December 1865.  It expressly outlaws slavery as well as involuntary servitude except as punishment for a crime.\n\nNothing else has to be done to continue this “Constitutional” mandate.\n\nThis does not apply to the rest of the world.  There yet remain vestiges of slavery in various parts of the world and certainly there exist forms of involuntary servitude.\n\nRandy

Depends on when you're talking about. Slavery in the 18th/19th century was a horrendous and brutal regime; slaves were strictly property and could be treated as such - beaten, starved and generally treated like dirt. Slavery under the Roman Empire was comparitively benign; slaves then had numerous protections, were guaranteed food, housing and a certain standard of living. If you were unable to provide these, you would not be allowed to keep slaves.

Who says it wrong to bring up slavery by anyone?  Blacks tend to use it as an excuse for historical problems.

Jesus died for my sins.  It was a long time ago, but it affects me NOW.  I have been saved because of what he did.  I don't say anything about slavery, it doesn't matter any more.  Blacks have been freed, free for a VERY long time, and it doesn't make a difference.  Its not comparable to my religion.  Jesus saved my soul.  I will dwell on it, its the most important thing in my life.

a long time ago during slavery time. a mans wife was about to give birth. the man had to send for a doctor. so he got in his    carriage and rode off into the night. but before he went he told one of his servents to make sure that he held a light out for him to see because it was an unusually cold blizzard. the man stood outside so long that he froze. and in memory of the servant the man made a statue for him. this caught on to wat it is today. origanally the statue has a lantern in his hand.

slavery still exists. its just in a different form. there are slaves here in america and in other parts of the world. i am surprised u never heard of it. there are woman who come into this country with a promised job as a "maid" and when they get over here their employer takes their passports and keeps their wages. which is slavery.

Unfortunately, slavery was a vital institution for the economic well being of the South. Whenever the issue of slavery came up during the drafting of the Constitution, arguments between North and South arose, which was one of the precursors to the Civil War. The Missouri Compromise, the 2/3 Compromise, both dealt with the issue of slavery and how far north it could extend. Southerners referred to it as a "necessary evil", a bad thing, but nevertheless it was vital to the South's economy, and also the nation as a whole.

If that is slavery, what is freedom to you? Freedom to not persue anything? Is that what you call freedom?\n\nThe American dream might be elusive, but to those who strive to get it, usually does, or else the concept might have died long ago.\n\nYes, I was indebt, too. But I had the FREEDOM to pay it off. I never displaced any of my responsibility to anyone else, keeping in mind the freedom to do and rise at a greater height than what I could reach, so as NOT to blame a "system" to my short comings.\n\nYou are only a slave if you view yourself as such. But if see yourself as a free man realizing his potential and applying his unbound liberty to rise among the rest, then you are trully a free man.\n\nBut yet, some are too lazy to do something at this freedom. Instead, succumbs to blame, mostly displacing it other than themselves. They are slaves... Slaves to themselves and their weakness, never realizing their potential.

Didn't know that slavery was classed as an institution??  It divided the whole country and caused a terrible war.  It also made human beings treat others like animals.

Slavery was meant to be a way of paying off debt. But if the master was to harm a slave the master is punished. And once the debt is payed they go free.\nWe are slaves now to the credit companies.\n\nChristianity, Judaism see things different than Muslim religion.
