This led to organized demonstrations in Nouakchott, Rosso, Nouadhibou and other towns. . . El Hor still exists today, but does not constitute a significant political force. These historical events led to a change in how the slave trade is conducted. Nowadays, beydane tribes make discreet arrangements among themselves. It's only the semantics that have changed.
People hesitate a little more now in using the word slave, except in anger or as an insult.
Depending on the region, different euphemisms exist, especially in the cities. I recall the case of a young woman who had a child. It was agreed not to transfer the child to his new owner until the mother had stopped breast-feeding him. These are the difficulties in finding the slave trade in Mauritania. I will take you to where it is happening.
