If a man sells his daughter as a servant, she is not to go free as menservants do. If a man beats his male or female slave with a rod and the slave dies as a direct result, he must be punished, but he is not to be punished if the slave gets up after a day or two, since the slave is his property. You can will them to your children as inherited property and can make them slaves for life. You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property. Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you from them you may buy slaves. Despite the brutal forms of slavery there - witness the story of the woman shown in the photo above who escaped only in 2010 - there's reason to believe Mauritania can improve.Įrnie 28 you are a typical fundamentalist moron that does not know the bible you preach from. It's a place of agonizing beauty - one that's easy to love and hate in the same thought. But, over the course of the 8-day journey, we fell in love with the country in a bizarre way. When we arrived in West Africa in December, we weren't sure what to expect. It's to start a conversation that could create change. The goal isn't to shame Mauritania for being a vestige of old-world, descendent-based slavery.

A hired security guard accompanied videographer Edythe McNamee and me on the trip. A government minder was assigned to follow our team. We had to enter with permission to report another story and then conduct our research for this project covertly.
Mauritania doesn't allow foreign journalists to go to the country to report on slavery. We wanted to meet these men and tell their stories. Of putting aside differences for the greater good. It's such a powerful symbol of hope, cooperation and reconciliation. Think about that for a second: A slave and a slave owner came together to start an organization that is now trying to liberate people in a place where slavery is arguably more intractable and more common than anywhere else on Earth. Eventually we found SOS Slaves, an abolitionist group in Mauritania that was founded by a former slave owner and a man whose family was enslaved.
As part of The CNN Freedom Project, a multi-year effort to report on modern slavery, we began talking with anti-slavery organizations and government workers who deal with Mauritania in hopes that we could get a sense of what life is like in this place where slavery is so shockingly common. Work on this story started 11 months ago, after we stumbled upon a few of those statistics. In 1981, Mauritania became the last country in the world to abolish slavery. It didn't make owning a person a crime until 2007. (CNN) - On Sunday, CNN Digital released a special report called " Slavery's Last Stronghold." It focuses on current-day slavery in Mauritania, a West African country where an estimated 10% to 20% of people are enslaved.
