A Map of the World's Slave Workforce (via Tim Fernholz at The Atlantic)

A Map of the World's Slave Workforce - Tim Fernholz - The Atlantic

A reboot of a topic from a week or so ago; of course, slavery remains a significantly-germane topic to Glopo's treatment of Human Rights. Year 2 students will again see that India continues to feature prominently (in the wrong way, of course), as best depicted in Half the Sky, as well that very large swath of central Africa we're all too familiar with. Just be sure you check the label on your Halloween chocolate; the central ingredient (cocoa) may have been harvested by slaves.
