The African Union voices anger after a CNN report appears to show African men being sold at auction.
Just thought y’all should know, but African migrants are being sold as slaves and hardly anyone seems to know about this.

It might be a new phenomenon in Libya, but it is well known that in the Islamic Republic Mauritania they still sale slaves… In other parts of the continent Lebanese & other recruitment agencies sale people black Africans as well. They have pictures of the women in a catalogue, & people in Middle East choose the girl they want. The recruitment agencies then bring them to the chosen country. Owners or employers if u like come to collect them like merchandise. They confiscate their passports from the airport, & they cannot leave without the consent of their “employers”… Difference with Libya is that us the African youths are fed up with the majority of our leaders. We’ve experienced the rest of the world & we’ve realized that we are not welcomed anywhere. Above all we have no friends apart from ourselves. We have accepted it that fact, now we just want to change things. Our friendship & kindness throughout history has been used against us. Now it’s time to be African with Africans in order to create, dream, work but above all love who we are.
