I'm out of the context here. In Mexico when we think of slavery it does not come with a direct link to color. Even as indigenous people are treated as second-class citizens by so many upper echelons of society today, the link wasn't between them and slavery.
So I have no way of really knowing how an actual American mind works when they associate things to the word slavery.

That said, this doesn't change the fact that this is slavery. Agreeing with the bulk of your last paragraph, shouldn't the error be not to commit fully to calling it slavery rather than to claim that it was slavery?
