Between mental and physical trauma, and struggles such as safety and food shortages, cause women and children to be in extreme danger in the midst of civil wars. This is why countries like the USA and France usually try to intervene to help these third world countries get out of war, and save the many innocent civilians that are hurt due to malnutrition, rape, casualties, family deaths and many other factors.

Atlantic Slave Trade Towards the end of class we briefly viewed images throughout the duration of the slave trade from Hitchcock’s slave database.
