Imagine being transported to another time, in which you’re standing at a slave market. He has a new worker, a slave, a child. We would rather not admit the truth to ourselves: we witnessed a modern slave market. We would want to burn down the modern-day slave market and rescue those vulnerable children from the grasp of those who would reduce them to commodities. It is an institution that deserves our relentless opposition until the day we can sneer at it as casually as we now do the slave market.
