| Human trafficking: 21st century slavery |
 |
Today we talk about 21-Century slavery. On
December 2 the international community
observes International Day for the Abolition
of Slavery. Despite centuries of prohibition,
the shameful activity still exists. There's
even a disturbing rise in contemporary forms
of slavery, such as human trafficking and the
sale of babies on the internet. How could the
global economic crisis influence this
alarming situation? What should be done to
prevent it? Well be talking about it with -
Alberto Andreani, Project Coordinator with
the IOM, and IOM Goodwill envoy - pop singer
Valeria.

| MALCOLM X: OUR HISTORY WAS DESTROYED BY SLAVERY |
 |
http://malcolmxfiles.blogspot.com/
Malcolm X appears on a television show in
Chicago called "City Desk" on March 17, 1963.
"My father didn't know his last name. My
father got his last name from his grandfather
and his grandfather got it from his
grandfather who got it from the slavemaster.
The real names of our people were destroyed
during slavery. The last name of my
forefathers was taken from them when they
were brought to America and made slaves, and
then the name of the slavemaster was given,
which we refuse, we reject that name today
and refuse it. I never acknowledge it
whatsoever."
