Are you one of Kenya’s new slaves?

If you are ever in Dakar, Senegal, please make the emotional visit to Goree Island, where slaves were shipped to the new world in the Caribbean, South America and North America. Echoes of that bygone era still reverberate in Mississippi, where slavery once thrived. Today, this US state has the highest proportion of African-Americans as a percentage of state population.

That old form of slavery is long gone — though periodic reports appear to suggest it is still alive.
