Slave, My True Story
This is a very good read. It's a true story about a young woman named Mende Nazer. She was captured about age 12 in the Nuba Mountains of the Sudan. She was sold into slavery in Khartoum where she stayed for approx. 7 yrs with her "master". She was then shipped to London to the home of a Diplomat, no less to continue her "slave duties" she stayed there for about 2yrs before she managed to escape.
This book is about modern day slavery. Mende escaped in 2000 and was granted asylum in the UK in 2003. There are still many more Sudanese children enslaved by the arab militia in that country. This is to raise awareness of people in the west of the atrocities still taking place in this era.
