When Your Favorite Restaurant Hides a Terrible Secret
What if the place where you enjoyed countless meals was built on human suffering? David Batstone faced this exact revelation when federal agents raided his beloved Berkeley Indian restaurant, discovering that the owner had trafficked hundreds of workers from India. These people worked grueling hours for pennies, their wages immediately returned as inflated "rent" to their captor. This wasn't happening in some distant corner of the world-it was unfolding in a progressive California college town, hidden behind the warm glow of familiar storefronts. That moment shattered Batstone's comfortable assumptions and launched him on a journey across continents to document a horrifying truth: more people live in slavery today than at any point in human history. Over 30 million souls exist in bondage right now, generating $150 billion annually for their exploiters. Unlike historical slavery where humans represented valuable investments, modern slaves are considered disposable-easily replaced when they break down or resist. This invisibility makes contemporary slavery particularly insidious, operating through legitimate-seeming businesses, private homes, and global supply chains that touch nearly everything we consume.
