It's akin to indentured servitude. Kids under parental discretion who have no options decided to under-take it, to be able to go to school or eat (usually loaned to more wealthier families). Some people are abusive towards the kids. It's crazy that even tho, poverty has gotten to that state where parents have loan out the kids for them to survive.

Is she comparing this to American antebellum slavery which was in fact a "race thing"?

Slavery was ALWAYS a 'class/power' issue.....until the 17th Century. That's when 'race' became the criterion thanks to the Enlightenment and a labor shortage.

There was no 'White race' OR 'Black race' until then.

You're a little off. "Race" became a criterion ever since 1491 in the Spanish Inquisition. So I would say it was since the 1500s, 16th century

That's when they started using race laws and started destroying anyone who didn't adhere to them. It was also a way to get the Black Moors out of Spain

I'm not off at all. There was no 'White race' until 1691. Prior to that, the term 'White' was referencing a European class, most often the nobility. The Enlightenment was when people were 'scientifically' classified by 'race'......



What you're referring to is the former usage while I'm speaking on the latter.

The sangre cleansing thing. Where they were bringing up lineages to kick out anyone who had morisco or Jewish blood. A lot of those lineages were made up too

She said that wasn't true.
