    Freedomville: The Story of a 21st-Century Slave Revolt

    Freedomville: The Story of a 21st-Century Slave Revolt by Laura T. Murphy
    English | September 7th, 2021 | ISBN: 173442074X | 150 pages | True EPUB | 3.35 MB

    A celebrated revolution brought freedom to a group of enslaved people in northern India. Or did it?

    Millions of people today are still enslaved; nearly eight million of them live in India, more than anywhere else. This book is the story of a small group of enslaved villagers in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh who founded their own town of Azad Nagar—Freedomville—after staging a rebellion against their slaveholders. International organizations championed it as a non-violent "silent revolution" that inspired other villagers to fight for their own freedom.

    But Laura T. Murphy, a leading scholar of contemporary global slavery who spent years researching and teaching about Freedomville, found that there was something troubling about Azad Nagar's success. Murphy embarks on a Rashomon-like retelling—a complex, constantly changing narrative of a murder that captures better than any sanitized account just why it is that slavery continues to exist in the twenty-first century. Freedomville's enormous struggle to gain and maintain liberty shows us how realistic it is to expect radical change without violent protest—and how a global construction boom is deepening and broadening the alienation of impoverished people around the world.
