There have been slaves in every culture & civilization. I believe that Christianity in Great Britain and the US played a huge part in ending it in our respective countries. However, the severe branches of Islam still continue to make slaves of each other....especially of their women.

Good clip Antara because I think this is an aspect of history that few people know.
