more slaves in America are owned now (2007) than during any other period of time.
Boys as young as 11 are strong-armed into militias to serve as child soldiers or to perform forced labor.
the cost of a slave when they were legal would be equivilent to 40,000 USD by todays standards, while one can now buy a slave for 100 USD. or 25,000 for "special" slaves.
Girls as young as five are sold into sexual slavery.
In a recent case, a mother sold her 12 year-old daughter into a trafficking ring. The girl is now pregnant and has been abandoned by her family.
more later?
