Slavery
Slavery
is
a
condition
where
people
who
have
power,
in
this
case
white
people,
oppress
the weak
people
(Negroes)
without
human feelings.
Black
people
have been
employed by
white
people
but they never get their salary. They are slaves
for white
people.
White
people
are
very
rude
to
them.
Black
;:>eople
have
been
tortured.
Most
of
therr, died because
of
that
maltreatment. But
now,
we can
still
find
slavery in
any
place.
For
example, a
servant
has
been
tortured ::,y
her
Mas'r. She
never
gets
her
payment
too.
I
This
problem
still
happens
probab'y
because
they
think,
they have control
over
their
servant
A
different
race,
education or
religion
are
the
things
that
can
be
the cause
of
that
problem.
But
a
person
who
likes
torturing
others,
maybe
has
psychological
problem.
The
followings are
the
opinion of
the experts
about
slavery:
''Slavery
describes a
wide
variety
of
conditions
where
by
one
person
subordinates
another,
usually
by the
exercise
of
physical
coercion, and
exerts
some
proprietorship, either
legally or
customarily,
from
the
earliest
times
to the
present." (K11ight,
I
995,
p. 19)
According to the
opinion
of Knight
(1995),
slavery has occurred because
of
anotbe:person
has
been
enslaved for
two
reasons:
First,
for
peoples whose
fault in their
environment or
for
warriors that
lost,
dead
in
war
as
their
punishment; second, as a real
maltreatment for
men
and warner;
as slaves. Slavery as a
normal part
of
human activity
was
accepted by
organized religion and
every
type
of
society until
the
late
18'h century,
