when did slavery end??

Answer 1

where? it still exists in some places.

Answer 2

Slavery hasnt ended. Its everywhere. Racism is why other minorities arent financially on par with whites in North America. In third world countries cash crops keep people providing us cocoa and sugar at the expense of millions of lives. These people work unhumane hours with little or no pay. If they stop working or try and leave their families are murdered. Think about that when you have a chocolate bar. Look at the back of something you own, notice how it says made in china? Its a communist country. The people work under horrible conditions to make most of all the items we buy here. They get paid enough to barely eat. And yet when the product gets to our border we mark up the prices 100-fold so the people at the top of the business pyramids here make billions. Slavery is the definition of corporate america. We've just outsourced to other countries.

Answer 3

You might want to clarify what period of slavery. Also, keep in mind that slavery still exists in many countries, even though it is illegal by that countries laws. For example, check out human trafficking...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery#Human_trafficking

If you mean the period of slavery in the United States (where I live) slavery came to an end as a result of the civil war. By law, slavery ended at the ratification of the Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution in the United States in 1865.

Wikipedia can provide info on other periods of slavery.

Answer 5

If you mean in the US, slavery ended in 1865. If you mean in the world, slavery still exists in some countries, at least in fact, if not in law. Some African and Middle Eastern countries still tolerate slavery. In other countries, slavery, though not by that term, exists in various forms of involuntary servitude (e.g. forced prostitution, virtual slavery of foreign domestic helpers, especially in the Middle East, children and adolescents forcibly taken from their families and forced to fight a war or rebellion, etc.).

Answer 6

Slavery never ended, it just took on different forms. Today, aside from actual slavery in some parts of the world we also have sweat shops and staughter houses.

Answer 7

It hasn't. Slavery is still prevalent in many parts of the world, especially in numerous African nations and the Far East. Here in the US, Lincoln abolished slavery in the 1860's, but many slaves come through our border with Mexico in stiflingly hot and pewtrid trucks. They come to work in the US doing menial labor for which they are paid crap. There is also something termed "white slavery" which I believe is where women are kidnapped and brought to the near and far east to serve as concubines.

Answer 8

Slavery is still present in many parts of the world. Even in the USA. I live in Mexico and we have slaves. We pay them, but theyre indians really, so its basically slavery. Its kinda cool. Just like whites did on blacks a century ago.

Answer 9

Slavery will never end until their is no longer land value. Ask anybody that needs to work to pay a mortgage or rent.

Answer 10

slavery still exists mostly in the African Nation. The Africans are still selling their people for slavery.

Answer 11

Slavery is a natural condition of man imposed on other men. It has always been with us and will forever be. only the termanology changes. Even you and I are slaves to the govt. we are not free in most respects of the word.
