#37 To Own a Human Being
There are 46 million people around the world that are forced into slavery. Some are born in to bonded labour and others are forced into prostitution. In this podcast we are talking about slaves working to pay off a debt that might not even exist. Bonded Labour Liberation Front Society (BLLFS) in Pakistan has helped thousands of workers to break free from the inhumane conditions of bonded labour. Ylva Bergman, editor-in-chief, has met Atiqua Shadid Khan of BLLFS to hear the story of a medieval practice in a modern era.
