Guest Koonta [a play on the name Kunta Kinte?-clever. But are you really of African descent??? Only you know the truth of that, but I have my suspicions that the answer is "No"].

Thank you for providing information about a subject that needs to be discussed. The subject of present day slavery has been raised before on this discussion forum, and certainly can be and needs to be raised again.

Furthermore, I agree with you that places of power such as the United Nations need to direct more attention to these heinous acts.

Koonta, I do not deny that some Black Africans were involved in slavery along with White people in the past and that some Africans are still involved in slavery in the present along with White people and also independent of White people.

I also am aware-as I'm sure that you are-that present day slavery exist elsewhere and not just in the continent of Africa.

And Koonta, for what it's worth, I personally find the term "Whitey" as offensive an individual or group referent as the term N---g [though I will spell one out and not the other].
