Slavery is illegal in America
Contrary to popular belief that slavery became illegal over 150 years ago, the inhumane practice still persists in various new forms. Citing Ava Duvernay’s documentary 13th, Koski writes that there was a gap in the 13th Amendment that basically allows people to be placed into forced labour as a form of punishment for being convicted of a crime. For example, in January 2017, Sheriff Thomas Hodgson in Massachusetts presented local inmates as slave labour to help build the border wall with Mexico. Likewise, Duvernay’s documentary indicates that about 25 per cent of all people that are incarcerated in the world are in the U.S., making them prone to be put into slavery.
