Today is the International Day of Remembrance for the Victims of Slavery and the Transatlantic Slave Trade. Commemorating the passing of the Slave Trade Abolition Act in the United Kingdom in 1807, this day has been celebrated since 2007 at the call of the United Nations.
This day has been started to commemorate the passing of the Act to abolish the use of people as slaves by developed countries, especially the United Kingdom, America, for labor from African countries, and to honor and remember those workers who had to be plowed to work all the time.
The Act absolutely prohibits the sale, transfer, use or treatment, purchase, sale and exchange of any person as a slave . This day has emphasized that workers around the world should be employed with decent wages.
A program is being held today at the United Nations headquarters in New York. Nobel laureate Ol Soyinka is scheduled to give a speech at the event.
