- Abstract
"The government focuses on trafficking as the definitive form of
modern day slavery. In doing so, it portrays modern day slavery as a private
act with identifiable wrongdoers and views the Thirteenth Amendment
through the lens of forced labor. Workers’ advocates, on the other
hand, portray modern day slavery as a systemic form of oppression, supported
by governmental policies on immigration and occupational exclusions.
These groups focus on the Thirteenth Amendment through the lens
of class. A historical analysis suggests that the proper approach views the
Thirteenth Amendment through the lens of both class and labor."- Journal title
