“Most Britons still lived and died without encountering anyone whose skin colour was different from their own. Slaves, in short, did not threaten, at least as far as the British at home were concerned. Bestowing freedom upon them seemed therefore purely an act of humanity and will, an achievement that would be to Great Britain's economic detriment, perhaps, but would have few other domestic consequences.” StillsDifferentHomeWould BeHumanityEconomicAchievementConsequenceConcernedSkinsDiedSlaveBritishColourBritainGreat BritainBritish HistoryBritons Author:Linda Colley

“One of the greatest gains of capitalism is that even the proletarian slave feels like a master. He believes he has the power to change his life. We are propelled by the ideology of the self-made man: we work more, we consume more and in the end we consume ourselves. The consequences are burnout, bulimia and other lifestyle diseases.” MenBelieveCapitalismConsequenceSlaveLifestyleIdeologyBulimia Author:Renata Salecl
“'The Accursed' is very much a novel about social injustice as the consequence of the terrible, tragic division of classes - the exploitation not only of poor and immigrant workers but of their young children in factories and mills - and as the consequence of race hatred in the aftermath of the Civil War and the freeing of the slaves.” ChildrenWarYoungSocialPoorRaceClassNovelTerribleConsequenceHatredSlaveWorkersInjusticeCivil WarTragicImmigrantsDivisionFactoriesExploitationMillsYoung ChildrenAftermathSocial InjusticeImmigrant Workers Author:Joyce Carol Oates
