There was a decent Netflix special on this - 13th amendment (I believe that was the name). Basically slavery never actually ended, it’s just hidden in the prison system now. Society is ok with it because we’ve somehow gotten this distorted view that prison is about punishment and not rehabilitation.

Then wonder why we have such a high rate of recidivism.
