In 1850, an average slave in the American South cost what would be the equivalent of $40,000 today. One of the key characteristics of modern slavery is the idea that a human being is disposable. This idea of instant replaceability removes any incentive traffickers might have to treat them with care. Every day this month I’m wearing a (dress/tie) as part of @dressember because I want every individual in bondage to know that someone cares about them and that they are irreplaceable.
