Slavery has been with us for a very long, long time. It is mentioned in 6800 B.C. The world’s first city-state emerges in Mesopotamia. Land ownership and the early stages of technology bring war in which enemies are captured and forced to work: slavery. It most likely was the same for thousands of years before that.
