Why CNN reported 'Slavery's Last Stronghold'


By John D. Sutter, CNN

(CNN) - On Sunday, CNN Digital released a special report called "Slavery's Last Stronghold." It focuses on current-day slavery in Mauritania, a West African country where an estimated 10% to 20% of people are enslaved. In 1981, Mauritania became the last country in the world to abolish slavery. It didn't make owning a person a crime until 2007.

Work on this story started 11 months ago, after we stumbled upon a few of those statistics. As part of  The CNN Freedom Project, a multi-year effort to report on modern slavery, we began talking with anti-slavery organizations and government workers who deal with Mauritania in hopes that we could get a sense of what life is like in this place where slavery is so shockingly common. Eventually we found SOS Slaves, an abolitionist group in Mauritania that was founded by a former slave owner and a man whose family was enslaved.

Think about that for a second: A slave and a slave owner came together to start an organization that is now trying to liberate people in a place where slavery is arguably more intractable and more common than anywhere else on Earth. It's such a powerful symbol of hope, cooperation and reconciliation. Of putting aside differences for the greater good.

We wanted to meet these men and tell their stories.

It wouldn't be easy. Mauritania doesn't allow foreign journalists to go to the country to report on slavery. We had to enter with permission to report another story and then conduct our research for this project covertly. A hired security guard accompanied videographer Edythe McNamee and me on the trip. A government minder was assigned to follow our team. We had to try to distract him while we conducted interviews; we'd been warned that if we were found talking with people about slavery we would be arrested or kicked out of the country.

All the while, we were driven by a specific goal: To help Mauritania eradicate slavery. Like other Freedom Project articles and videos that have been featured on this blog, on CNN.com and on television, this report aims to shine a spotlight on the horrors of modern-day slavery and to amplify the voices of slavery's victims. The goal isn't to shame Mauritania for being a vestige of old-world, descendent-based slavery. It's to start a conversation that could create change.

When we arrived in West Africa in December, we weren't sure what to expect. But, over the course of the 8-day journey, we fell in love with the country in a bizarre way. It's a place of agonizing beauty - one that's easy to love and hate in the same thought. It's frustrating. It's maddening. But it's worth caring about. Despite the brutal forms of slavery there - witness the story of the woman shown in the photo above who escaped only in 2010 - there's reason to believe Mauritania can improve.

    What?! I thought only White Devils enslaved people! You mean blacks enslave other blacks? And they've been doing it for 1000's of years? So slavery is really much more African than European? Whew! Man, do I feel better....

        Mankind was made in the image of God so that we could have fellowship with God in the paradise he created, just as Adam and Eve once did. The first sin changed the course of mankind and every generation since that time, became more corrupt because of those that choose to live a life of corruption and lawlessness by oppressing others. Oppression is of satan, and like him it has many forms and as many faces.

        Okay, ernie, if you want to derail this discussion into your particular theology:

        Why am -> I <- guilty of a sin committed by someone who died thousands of years before I was born?

        Would you punish your children because their great-great-great-great-grandfather, who lived in a different country, spoke a different language, and never knew them or anyone who knew them, was a murderer? So why would a "loving father" do something like you claim?

        Ernie 28 you are a typical fundamentalist moron that does not know the bible you preach from. Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves. You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property. You can will them to your children as inherited property and can make them slaves for life. Leviticus25:44-46
        If a man beats his male or female slave with a rod and the slave dies as a direct result, he must be punished, but he is not to be punished if the slave gets up after a day or two, since the slave is his property. Exodus21:20-21
        If a man sells his daughter as a servant, she is not to go free as menservants do. Exodus 21:7

      Yes, Africans practiced slavery but differently than Europeans. African slavery did not demean people it was a way to work off a debt. Africans who enslaved other Africans did not treat them like skum it was simply a debt that was paid off by doing work such as attending to children or cleaning ones house.There was never violence within African slavery and they treated their slaves like people, respected them in that way unlike Europeans. Over time because of their greed Europeans made it into the degrading notion that you believe today.

        @Oriona, where did you study history? My family via both mother and father's lines comes from region currently called Tanzania. All the history available to me there, and here in the U.S., showed me a violent ancient world where slaves all over Africa suffered. The occasional "kind" slave owner is never a good comparison to how other cultures handle slaves. Perhaps you should take up residence in a libary for a while and study African slavery's history. Goodness! You are so wrong in what you say!!

        If you heartily believe that white europeans trudged deep into africa, rounded up thousands of blacks, loaded them on ships and sailed for the new world. You're sadly mistaken. Europeans frequented the coasts where tribal factions were at war. Those prisoners of war were sold to europeans like cattle by blacks to empower blacks to kill more blacks. There was no "hey let this guy go when he pays off his debt". It was "this guy is from a rival tribe, you can have him in exchange for booze, goods, and weapons". The truth of the matter is that black africans enslaved/killed more black africans than anything ever done by "the white man". Europeans never had the manpower in africa to round up vast groups of people to capture them into slavery. It was mostly the work done by africans.

        Um ... my friend, I think you need to study up on your history.

        There was just as much violence in African slavery as there was in any other. Slavery is not a nice thing, and people, by and large, aren't very nice either. It's a fact of humanity that we treat the people around us - in our family, our neighborhood, our town - differently than we do other people. In many languages, the word for a particular tribe translates to "the people" ...meaning everyone else ISN'T people. The whole idea of everyone, not just the people you know personally, being worthy of equal respect is mostly a modern invention (even in Rome, a remarkably cosmopolitan culture for its time, there were Roman citizens and everyone else, and guess who were the people?)

        African tribes raided other tribes for slaves. Then they started selling those slaves to Arab slave traders. Then they found a great market in European slave traders. But it was never about debt slavery (another matter entirely), and slaves were no more "people" than any other outsiders - not family, not relatives - were.

        In the end, though, it's not about whose ancestors were worse than whose. There's plenty of blame to go around. It's not our ancestors who matter, but our descendants. What legacy are we leaving for THEM?

        The Ancient Egyptians kept records of their yearly slave purchases from various Black African tribes. (And we all know how much dignity they were treated with there). This highlights the kidnappings which have characterized African slavery for eons. We're not talking about forms of indentured servitude which have existed in many societies, we're talking about slave trading....try reading some books and thinking and being honest...the truth will set you FREE! Don't be a lemming!

        @bigbiz2: Actually, the Egyptian pyramids were built by farmers. During the Nile's annual floods, they couldn't work their land, since it was underwater at the time, so they were hired by the pharaoh to build the pyramids (and other things). The idea that the pyramids were built by slaves has been outdated for a very long time. They came from all over Egypt to work on building projects. So in addition to the year-round workforce, for four months of the year the pyramid builders had all the cheap labor they could possibly want - and that they didn't have to feed for the rest of the year, or when they weren't building anything at the time.

        Oh my. Are you a white Moor from Mauritania? Please read on human trafficking. And let's all not miss the major point, at this time, that the trafficking and forced servitude in so much of the world proceeds directly from Islam. Saudi Arabia did not abolish slavery on paper until 1962, but conditions for their millions of guest workers are an exact parallel to those of the frankly enslaved in Mauritania and other places.

      Slavery isn't "about" any one country or region. At some point in the past, pretty much every country, every people, has done it. Africans? Sure. Europeans? Sure. Native Americans? Sure. Any other group you name? Most likely. Look at ancient Greece for an example. Nice straw man you're setting up there ... but once you've kicked it over, what remains? Reality. The reality that slavery exists, and has existed, and needs to come to an end.

      I should point out, while you're congratulating yourself for the astounding knowledge that people aside from your ancestors did horrible things (breaking news: Genghis Khan was a really bad guy!) that one type of slavery - a combination of deliberately setting out to capture slaves and transporting them for thousands of miles - does seem to be rather European-specific. Plenty of people bought slaves from their neighbors, enslaved defeated enemies, or even started wars just to get more, but the kind of organized slave-trading exemplified by ancient Rome was a whole different level.

      So congratulations on making yourself look like a giant failure to all of CNN-land. I'm not sure I could fail that hard if I tried.

Because Africans enslaved each other does not give anyone else a pass to enslave them NOR does it make any race better than the other because they were not the first to do it.

    The atrocities of human trafficing, rape, slavery, torture, etc. in Africa go on daily and expotentially. The U.S. media and politicians seem to downplay this, and instead make it sound like what's going on in the Middle East is so much worse. With due respect to the Middle East, what's going on there IS horrible, but the majority of humanitarian aide, weapons, infrastructure aide, and healthcare assistance is being funneled there instead of where it's needed the most. U.S. politicians- quit pretending we're such humanitarians- without oil as an incentive, other countries in dire need are left in the dust. Kudos to George Clooney, who was just arrested for protesting this very thing!

      Great insight. A single drunken infantry brigade could have stopped the horror in the Sudan years ago with pick-trucks and .22s. But we've allowed the racially, ethnically and religiously motivated genocide that Colin Powell pretended to detest go on. Not enough oil in it to bother with, and breaking hard on the Arabs would've irritated our wonderful Saudi allies.

    When workers have absolutely no rights in a country and receive no relief from the courts, they are basically slaves. America, a such, is the largest slave trading country in the history of the world, where the master to slave ratio is a clear 99 to 1.

      I disagree. As an low hourly wage employee for a "big evil financial company", I feel the farthest thing from a slave. They are helping me with loans, i get some good benefits, my hours are flexible, my boss is constantly telling me not to strain myself and to take breaks if things get hectic, and I get an hour (or more) for lunch. I just make sure my duties are done by the end of the week. Even though I make less than 30,000 a year (safely in the 99%) I feel like i got a pretty good deal. Now these people live in shabby tents, are raped, are told that they are less than human, are made to stand outside all night with their teeth chattering so their "masters" dont get a little wet. I think there is no comparison and you are an ignorant parrot if you think there is.

    Amazing how the guilt ridden European American feels a need to defend their slave master history. If this didnt apply to something you feel guilt for deep in your heart, this would be just an interesting yet story, not some get out jail free card. European American based slavery is in no way somehow less disgusting and horrific. Half the people who state that others go the library are equally as clueless and ignorant. Just because my neighbor commits a crime doesn't justify my crime. Own your history and try to do better than your forefathers. No other race in the word has ever sailed the world leaving disease, pillaging the resources and raping the citizens. No one is letting you off the hook. Too late, deal with it.

      You missed the point–or made one up, really. Yes, we should ALL feel regret (not guilt) for our ancestors' roles in slave trading, because it is an awful thing. But you never hear Blacks or the White PC media ever mention the huge responsibility Black Africans must bear for it. It's ridiculously slanted....and, uh, by the way, at least we stopped.

    Slavery is as old as man perhaps older. There are insects who enslave other insects..no contenent or culture is immune. If one tribe fought another what do you think was done to the prisoners.

    What an illuminating article done with great care and certainly great risks! I commend you for taking up this project. For most of the buffoons who have made comments here, it seems there are missing the point. It does not matter what the history was or is but what will it BE! It is a shame that slavery still exists anywhere in the world. What this article brings out that the mental shackles of slavery are worse than its physical shackles and a hard one to uproot. I think we should be discussing what we can do as individuals to end this in a forsaken place like Mauritiana rather than make legalistic comments and bicker at each other which is such a waste of time.

    The women whose story is highlighted should be an inspiration and motivation to all. When she broke her mental shackles and decided to do something about it, is when the change happened. Let us figure out how to support her and many like her who are still in the shadows.

      Fun fact: Before Tibet was taken over (re: liberated) in the 1960s, they also practiced slavery and the lamas used extremist religious ideals to keep control over their people. Any religion can be used to control people.

    A system exists now by which Arab Muslims - the bidanes—own black slaves, the haratines. An estimated 90,000 Mauritanians remain essentially enslaved. The ruling bidanes (the name means literally white-skinned people) are descendants of the Sanhaja Berbers and Beni Hassan Arab tribes who emigrated to northwest Africa and present-day Western Sahara and Mauritania during the Middle Ages.

    The correct way to abolish slavery is to kill slavers. If someone tries to enslave you, shoot him dead. It is self-defense. It is normal, natural, healthy, and good, to kill such slime.

    Doesn't the Muslim countries today enslave women? They just had the other day that a rapist can marry his victim and avoid prosecution in doing so and there parents sell them off to do so they don't lose face in the community. Is that not worse than slavery? Why no reports to tell how terrible Muslim Sharia law is? Oh I forgot, we are not allowed to talk about that or they might get angry.

      In North Africa, the main slave markets were in Morocco, Algiers, Tripoli and Cairo. Sales were held in public places or in souks. Potential buyers made a careful examination of the "merchandise": they checked the state of health of a person who was often standing naked with wrists bound together.

    Don't forget that slavery existed (and probably still exists) in the arab countries. Vikktor676 mentions the North African slave centres. There has also been slave centres in Saudia Arabia, Yemen and other countries around there. There are pictures of slave auctions in the late 20th century of slaves taken in east africa brought to the west by intrepid reporters. The refugees in Somalia are particularly vulnerable to slavers as they tramp across the country looking for assistance.

    CNN did a decent job on this but was inaccurate to say "slavery's last stronghold." This entire region, called the Sahel, has the exact same problem. These countries are along the line between the North African Arab and Berber tribes, and the South African Black tribes. In EVERY one of these countries Arabs own blacks. Google "slavery in" then type in any of the Sahel countries (Sudan, Chad, Niger, Mali, Western Sahara, Mauritania). Arabs own blacks in ALL of these so to say Mauritania is the LAST is false.

    Sudan literally means "land of the blacks" and was the main source of black slaves to the middle east until the 1960's when Western countries forced the Saudis and others to abandon chattel slavery. Sad that this still happens but it does because the world ignored these border countries.

      They did not abandon chattel slavery but have replaced the biggest income of slaves to come from the indian and bengali region where there are a lot of powerfull people willing to help directly or to be ignorant for a share in the financial profit or extra-legal benefits such as more rights then other people in everything in life.

        Yes Veronique, I've heard that. They use "maids" from the Phillipines and Indonesia as well to come and work in their homes but after many months of not being payed these women realize their passports are gone and they don't know the local language. They are abused as well. I guess I was just talking about direct, I'm your master you're my slave, type thing when they were taking blacks from their homes and bringing them to the Middle East. I suppose what they are doing now is not to much different though when it comes down to it.

        Well even if they look black to you, they consider themselves Arabs. Northern Sudanese along with the "white" Moors, are descendants of the Arabs but they have interbred through having black concubines for so long that they are not always much lighter than the "blacks" they enslave. That is not important to me though. It is still racist based slavery no matter what they look like to you.

      洪客隆被收购不会引起蝴蝶效应 南昌红谷滩洪客隆第一街区店   ●2009年,江西正邦集团挺进零售百货业,大量吃进南昌本土连锁企业万事达超市。   ●2006年,asics shoes running,位于中山路中段的上海华联撤离南昌。   ●2007年5月,位于胜利路步行街的时代广场百货正式营业,2008年9月宣告进行转型营业。   南昌零售业竞争日趋激烈 百货商场利润空间日益缩小   首席记者钟金平、实习生洪宇希 文/图   对于洪客隆卖掉其最擅长的零售百货业,不少业内人士为之惋惜。这一点与4年前(,)购物广场被百盛集团以5.1亿元收购的经历如出一辙。2007年,江西凯美投资集团将其做得风声水起的太平洋购物广场卖给外来资本马来西亚的百盛集团公司,ray ban pas cher,据称也是基于"凯美"集团的战略投资由零售百货业转向房地产。   洪客隆转嫁华润,南昌百货业反应平静   ●2004年6月,面对本土企业洪客隆与百货大楼两大巨头的扩张,加之外来零售巨头沃尔玛、天虹开张营业,"金阳光"只好关门歇业。   不过,air jordan pas cher,麻智辉也认为,随着国际零售企业巨头的进驻,大型零售百货卖场可以基本确定是以外来企业为主,但小型社区超市还是以本地连锁企业为主。   一个值得关注的现象是,在长期不能突破发展瓶颈后,卖掉旗下零售业务,似乎成为了不少区域零售企业的共同选择。不过,louboutin pas cher,业界质疑的是,地务真能支撑零售企业在转型后的可持续发展吗?谁都不敢保证,air jordan。也许只有时间能给出答案,asics。   据显示,christian louboutin,从2003年起,洪客隆开始进军房地产。8年里,洪客隆先后开发了多处地产项目,包括住宅地产和商业地产。洪客隆在南昌、新余、丰城等多个城市开设了10余家地产子公司;省外的广东深圳、海南三亚、四川成都也留有洪客隆的地产脚印。其中仅四川成都一个地方开发的地产项目就达700余亩,supra shoes,所需资金约为70亿至80亿元。从这一点来看,洪客隆集团急需资金用于地产投资,这与坊间猜测不谋而合。不过,对于外界的猜测,洪客隆只表示将投资重点转向房地产。   卖零售业务周转资金用于地产?南昌百货业投资地产已成一种趋势   省社科院经济研究所所长麻智辉认为,洪客隆的被收购不足以引起蝴蝶效应。洪客隆被收购了,洪城大厦超市、百货大楼、丽华购物广场不一样在经营吗?   如今,洪客隆集团突然卖掉零售业务,又到底为哪般?进入本世纪初,外资零售业和专卖店、大卖场等新兴业态的崛起使得百货占全社会零售额急剧下降,本土的百货零售业将面临更加严峻的竞争压力和考验。随着沃尔玛、家乐福、大润发等外来巨头鱼贯而入,南昌乃至江西零售业真正进入了战国时代。激烈的竞争使得洪客隆零售业的拓展速度也明显迟缓,利润空间缩小。   ●2007年,先是百盛商业集团收购太平洋购物广场,再是天虹并购百意百货。   激烈竞争致洪客隆零售利润空间缩小   对于此次洪客隆转嫁其发家业务零售百货业,外界的猜测是为了满足其地产项目拓展的资金需求。   1995年,洪客隆开创仓储式开架自选新型商场。这种创造性的模式使得洪客隆百货商场开业后一炮打响,很快在南昌市形成"洪客隆"现象。经过了十几年的发展,洪客隆已成为南昌最有影响力的本土零售巨头,中国连锁百强。   "零售百货业不做主业,搞多种经营已是南昌的一大特色,尤其是转向房地产,因为房地产的利润高,商人的目标就是逐利,哪样赚钱快,就往哪个项目投资。在南昌搞零售百货业的企业,除了洪客隆在搞房地产,洪城大厦也在搞房地产。"江西省社科院经济研究所所长麻智辉称。   据记者调查,自2004年起至今,南昌至少有6家品牌超市或转行或易主或关门:   8月2日15时许,地处红谷滩新区的洪客隆第一街区店依然是人员熙熙攘攘。尽管洪客隆从7月29日就换了主人,但对于干货区的营业员小张来说,她的工作任务没有变,除了理货,就是不停地给客人推荐产品。小张说,换不换主人对于她来说都无关紧要,asics shoes,她还是店员一个,而她的上一级主管至今也没有换。   而据媒体7月30日的报道称,在该商场发出的购物券等一切有价证券仍可以照常使用。当记者置身洪客隆超市当中,ray ban,并没有感受到更多的变化。而一位经营员称,目前没听说商场在经营方面有什么大调整。总之,cheap supra shoes,洪客隆的易主,在其企业内部一切尚显平静,而在南昌本土百货业,louboutin pas cher,对此似乎同样没有表现出怎样的讶然。   南昌近年6家品牌超市易主   ●2011年,洪客隆转嫁华润万家。Related articles: The station solemnly declare the two sides agreed Friedrich August von Hayek of these items by 20% tax levy.
