Origins Of American Slavery
613 words
In the early seventeenth century, the English
began to rapidly and successfully colonize
America. With this rapid population increase also
came, shortly after, a booming new agricultural

indenture servants from Europe and Native American
slaves. But soon the Englis...

with the traditional marriage ceremony of the
Momna community, a minority group in eastern
Pakistan from where I come. In this community, the
marriage ceremony lasts for two days, with rituals
that are not only unique, but extremely amusing,

Child Labour In The World Today
1,039 words
Many wrong situations are happening in the world
today. Some we may know of and others we may not.
The reason that we do not know of some of these
situations is because they are happening clear
across the globe. Many are happening in third
world countries in Asia and Africa. One of the
wrong doings that stands out is child labour. This
stands out because making children work for ten or
more hours a day with very little food is not

Child Labor Sexual Abuse

In America, people believe that child labor does
not affect them, not realizing that the Persian
rugs they put their feet on are made by suffering
children in a dark, small room. They dont realize

around outside are made by children themselves,
who slave away for little or no pay at all. In
1999, ap-proximately 250 million children are
employed or enslaved across the world for little
