Today, over 200 years after the abolition of the transatlantic slave trade, an estimated 27 million people worldwide are still locked into slavery and servitude across the globe. This major new photography project, organised by Hayward Touring in collaboration with the photographic agencies Autograph ABP and Magnum Photos, takes an in-depth look at the prevalence of slavery and injustice in the twenty-first century, through the lenses of eight internationally-acclaimed documentary photographers. With commentaries on each of these projects, an essay by one of the world’s leading authorities on global slavery, Kevin Bales, and an interview with Director of Autograph ABP and curator Mark Sealy, this book provides vital insights into one of the most pressing issues of our time.
