The Thirteenth Amendment

"Section 1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
Section 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation."


This video shows the argument from both sides, the slave owner and the slave.  Although we have seen slavery is very dificult and harsh, the 13th amendment did not just free slaves it free all people in servitude.

I believe this image is self explanitory.  It shows all the reasons slavery is wrong and all the reasons it should be changed.
