To all the posters on here that are criticizing with their double standards about the Portuguese not being the first to practice slavery on Africa and that Africans practiced slavery on their own. It's not possible to relativize the one with the other. Get off your high horse people!
Victim blaming serves to create psychological distance between the blamer and it occurs when the victim of a crime or any wrongful act is held entirely or partially at fault for the harm that befell them. The victim blaming serves no one. There is no justification or excuse.
Slavery, forced labor and human trafficking are violations of human rights because these acts strip human beings of their inherent rights. Period!
