With 2007 delivering the 200th anniversary of the climax of the 19th hundred years abolitionist movement, the entire world gives tribute to great visionary information such as William Wilberforce of the uk and North american Frederick Douglass for their impressive strides toward framing slavery as a moral concern that folks of good conscience cannot tolerate. This anniversary provides not only as a commemorative particular date for battles gained against slavery, but also as a reminder that slavery and bondage still persist in the 21st hundred years.
