How to use "Slave" in context?
Historically, a slave was an owned person, who was subject to mandatory work and residence in a particular location. Slavery was generally considered a negative experience, with slaveholders often being cruel to their slaves. Despite this reputation, many slaves actually worked hard and were very resilient, often using their imaginations to create new ways of life. Today, slavery is still practiced in the form of human trafficking, and the experience is still very negative.
