    Couldn’t find a graphic depiction of american slavery, huh? But no problem finding one for Iran? Interesting.

      Not particularly, you couldn’t find a relevant image either (and photography was not common, even after the introduction of glass-plate photography, 160 years ago. Everyone in the modern era carries a camera in their pocket, making images like the above from modern-day Iran much easier to produce.)
