Despite the abolition of slavery, millions remain trapped in forced labor across Africa today. This episode delves into the grim realities of modern slavery, from child labor in cobalt mines to blood diamond conflicts. We examine why this exploitation persists, who benefits from it, and why it remains largely unspoken. Discover the disturbing connections between modern slavery and global industries, and explore the failures of international organizations to put an end to this crisis.
