What is modern day slavery?
- some camps are so bad that 20% or more of their prisoners are from torture and abuse each year
- 95% of the salaries of many slaves in North Korea went directly to the North Korean government
- North Koreans had to work 16 hours per day on average
- 200,000 men, women, and children are held in these slave-labor camps
Modern day slavery is when someone is tricked or being forced into a situation they didn't agree to, it's for others profit. Victims are forced to work under the threat of violence for little or no pay. They are prevented from walking away.
