Document Summary
Everyone should be able to do their work and do it well, in a safe and comfortable environment. Skilled people that were wanted as slaves, earned nothing for the skills that they could provide. Slavery by another name for those that work for nothing/free (exploitation is still a form of slavery, even if it is not so called) Over 6,000 documented examples of lynching, up until about 1960 (violent society) Usually white mobs, targeted mostly towards black people. Nonviolence is an ancient concept, but didn"t have a name until gandhi put a name and the actions to it (while he was in africa) Muslim business rm invited him to south africa to do legal work for them; gandhi can be called the father of nonviolence. (exodus) jews were slaves in egypt (despite their traditions and culture) and they were hanging together in the community strongly, more children. Pharaoh felt threatened, so that the boys were to be slain at birth.
