Slavery is a live issue today, but the people who talk about it as
such are not all of a piece. Some insist the world is now plagued
by the contemporary equivalent of transatlantic slavery, and call
on us to combat "modern slavery". Others hold that the on-going
devaluation and destruction of black life continues the logic of
transatlantic slavery. They urge us to address the "afterlives" of
racial chattel slavery. These two groupings provide different
answers to the questions, "what do we know and what should we do
about slavery?" This book reviews what is known about the issues at
the heart of each perspective, and argues that the concept of
"afterlives" is more helpful than that of "modern slavery" to those
seeking to challenge injustice, violence, inequality and oppression
in the twenty-first century.
