Abstract

For three centuries and a half, 10 to 15 million black Africans were forcibly moved to America as slaves. Over 12 million people are victims of forced labor in the world, according to a report by the International Labour Organization. The term "trafficking" is a convenient euphemism that seeks to eliminate the ethical dimension of the concept behind "the slave trade." A more appropriate term is "slave trade" since the word "slave" has kept the load of infamy that involves human beings down to the category of goods. In any case, both terms are presented to us in the XXI century as far as devoid of real meaning. And that is precisely the aim of this size chart: to bring us the concept of slavery, seek, where possible through photography, which come alive the institution of slavery.
