When James Kofi Annan was six years old he was sold into slavery by his parents. He was forced to work punishingly long hours as a child fisherman on Lake Volta, and saw other child slaves drown from the hazardous work they were made to do. Years later, James eventually managed to escape, went back to school, and set up a charity credited with saving thousands of other Ghanaian children from slavery.
