Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 1948, explicitly prohibits slavery in all forms in Article 4: "No one shall be held in slavery or servitude; slavery and the slave trade shall be prohibited in all their forms." The other options given are incorrect: there is no such thing as the Universal Declaration of Independence, and the Universal Anti-Slavery Compact is not a real document. While the UN Charter does reference human rights, it does not specifically mention slavery.
