In this astonishing book, Mustafa Kamel reveals a dark side often overlooked by the West when it accuses the East of slavery. He sheds light on the ugliest forms of slavery among the Romans, from markets where humans were sold like commodities, to horrific methods of torture, to exploitation that degraded human dignity. Combining historical narrative with critical analysis, the author confronts Europeans with the history of their ancestors, demonstrating that those who point fingers at others should first hold themselves accountable. He paints a shocking picture that forces readers to reconsider the narratives of "Western civilization" that conceal bloody pages of slavery and cruelty. This book is not merely a presentation of history; it is an invitation to reflect on the meaning of freedom and human dignity throughout the ages.
