Definitely. They volunteered for one job, but fell victim to the ol' bait and switch - not unlike eastern european women being sold into sexual slavery after having been promised some other legitimate employment opportunity. That the victim and their captor are of the same race, minority or not, does not diminish the fact that one has been unwittingly "enslaved," IMHO.
