Slavery!

Thanks Citychic!!! for including some of the details. Okay, if I got that book in the library, where I am recently a member, I will surely borrow it and read it. I don't know how tragic the story is when I am already touched hard with the trailer you just described. I am sure that I will get too much disturbed emotionally reading it because my heart is so kind and that is certain. I pray with you that this story doesn't happen to any person in this world. Well there are many selfish people in this world and this is the major reason for these problems. Though slavery is said to be lost already, it is due to these type of persons that are not really letting this nightmare to end. These persons brings creates different types of tortures on the innocent people whom they can take control and they are directly or indirectly related to slavery. People should not only read it but also realize it. If most people know the fact then certainly some efforts will come up that will help reduce such problem to the greater extent. Keep posting Citychic!!! and happy mylotting...

Slavery........... Hello mylot friend, the reason why I did not put in too many details about the book was because I didn't want to take away from ur reading enjoyment in case you decided to read the book for yourself. But this much I will say as far as slavery went in the book. The girl had to work her behind off and then she got tortured by her female master anytime she did the least little thing wrong. The book was given to me by my sister b/c it's so hard for us people that live in the twentieth century to imagine what slavery was really like since we've never had to live it.....But imagine it with me if you will.... let's say that u were a young boy or girl of eight or nine years old. You didn't know much about life, other than what ur mom and dad might have taught you and a few of ur friends from the neighborhood. Then one night while laying down to rest, some mad idiots just came around storming in and they began to torch ur home. They raped ur mother and killed ur father. Then grabbed all of the young children. Take them away to a place they've never seen before and from there begins a life of the worst kind of mental cruelty ever imaginable. If you were a girl you couldn't even go out and take a pee in the woods because you were subject to being raped. Well that is just a few of the details. I will leave the rest for you in case you decide to read it and learn about it for yourself. I will never forget that story and at night I will pray for the other people in this world that are still being tortured and brutally beaten and made to work without pay, through no fault of their own. It was a very sad story but as everyone knows, with history, if we fail to learn about it, then it's subject to be repeated. I hope that everyone will read it and who knows, maybe we can all do something in one way or another to help to make a positive difference. Even if it's nothing but to teach our own children that slavery is an atrocity which should have never happened in the first place.

Slavery......... Yes friend, it's true, we live and learn. Just think, if you lived in Korea you could probably get one of the yobos to do ur dishes for you and you wouldn't have to pay very much for it...Peace out!

Hmmm...never thought about that. I suppose that would be Indentured Servitude? A meager salary for laborious tasks...I guess Kathy Lee Gifford would know more about that than I!

Slavery, Hello friend, I'm not trying to blame all of the Muslim people for this one particular incident. It was a true story and if you don't believe me then you should read it for yourself. It was a small minority that would go into the African villages of Sudan to capture children and use them as slaves. In this particular story the perpetrators just so happened to be Arabs.....There are far too many people that think that there religion is the right one. But the true test will come when God himself appear on the scene. When I mentioned that i learned a lot about Islam I didn't mean that I learned a lot of bad things about it... I only meant that I learned a few things about it in general. Such as the prayer mat and how to say hello. Or about Mecca. I will never try to learn about Islam in my heart b/c that isn't the culture in which I grew up in. I grew up under Christianity..... and whether it is right or wrong it's the only religion that I'm standing up for...True enough there are people that will lie, steal and cheat in order to make book sales, produce movies, etc, but this was a true story and it was told by the author as best she could remember. Where I'm from a person's word is their bond and if we can't take her word for it, then why do any of us bother to listen or believe the stories that come from each other in the first place? Don't even bother to listen to the news b/c for you, you'd probably think that it's all just a bunch of lies, whereas with almost every story, there is some truth. But it's left up to the reader to choose to believe it or not. Usually if it's a fiction that mean it's false but non-fictions mean it's true.
