The Business of Slavery: the disrespect

  • Summary

  • In parts one and two of our three-part series on The Business of Slavery, we explored the intricate web of money and power that fuelled this inhumane institution. Today, we turn our focus to the mindset that enabled such brutality. Join us in this episode as we delve into the pervasive mindset that sustained the system of slavery and examine how echoes of this mindset persist in today's forms of modern slavery.
