It is amazing that people born here no less then you do about the constitution it's sad. The Government has passed so many laws that there is a loop hole in everyway you go. I think that people have had so much trust in our Government that we forget what the constitution is in place for. It is so the decisions of this country should be made by its citizens and i can't remember ever voting on huge issues such as Iraq, Patriot Act, bailouts pretty much anything that effects this country so greatly. The biggest threat to this country today is Education and morality, things that we seem to have lost through Hollywood and the corporate media. The constitution is slowly being taken away and put into a standard of fascism. Our forfathers would be rolling in there graves to see how our Government has acted over the last 100 years. Our country is being bought by the wealthy and we continue to let it happen. It saddens me to say that our own people just don't care anymore. The Government should fear its people and it is the other way around now. What happened America, home of freedom and liberty. And if you think that the constitution needs to be changed then you are exactly the type of person they want voting.

While Brazil outlawed slavery in 1888, it continues today in SubSaharan Africa.
However, here's a funny fact. DENMARK had legal slavery until 1848 in the Virgin Islands. Look it up.

I will make the assumption you referring to the slave trade from Africa to the Americas. It was England that started to stop the slave ships starting in 1835. The last Country to end slavery in the Americas was Cuba in 1885.
