Slavery still exists ....

Yes, it does.

Human trafficking is a form of slavery and many people, especially women and children are held against their will and forced into manual labor or for prostitution. This most probably isn't about race but economic in nature.

In the Philippines, thousands of Filipinas are lured into the false promise of a job in a foreign country, like Thailand, Malaysia or Indonesia. Once they arrive there, a lot of these young women are surprised that they end up working in a brothel or become a maid/ slave with no pay. Well...they do get paid but their "agency" gets the money to pay off their passports, transportation, lodging, etc.
