Re: Big Sugar Slavery
Quite an interesting video especially since I'm currently conducting research on the relationship between sugar and the desire for African slaves in the Atlantic from the 16th-19th centuries for an Atlantic History graduate course I'm taking. Amazing how many European and African wars were started over this little substance.
Definitely recommend watching it!

Re: Big Sugar Slavery
Absolutely. And in all reality, the sugar slavery is still alive and well with over 2/3rds of the population enslaved by obesity and diabetes.
The second video focuses on the soda industry .. its absolutely MADDENING to realize how the sugar industry DENIES the connection between sugar consumption and obesity.
