We have had too many popes issue hollow apologies, and people fall for their crocodile tears.
1) Demand that the #Pope ask #Catholics to resign from all military posts.
2) Demand that the #Vatican pay #reparations to all the people of the nations that the church looted, and which afforded it a pile of gold in a private city state in the middle of Rome.
3) Demand that the #Catholic #Church compensate all the children their priests abused.
4) Demand that the pope stop condemning #LGBTQ folks.
5) #FreeLuigi

The utter silence from the British Press about this, it was "Royal News" yesterday
Oh sure, there are the stories, but the algorithms were not showing this one if that cursed Windows News tab is anything to go by...

*The United States voted against a United Nations resolution this week to formally recognize the trans-Atlantic slave trade as the “gravest crime against humanity.”*
*The resolution, which was led by Ghana, urged U.N. member states to apologize for the slave trade and to contribute to a reparations fund.*

While the slavery UN resolution passed by a healthy 123 in for it, 3 against and 52 abstaining.
The three actively against were Israel, Argentina and the US.
The 52 abstain was made up primarily of the European block with a notable supporter of reparations, Ukraine, not having much to say on this clear and present need for reparations.
The "rules based order" at work I guess

Huge update from the UN today, Ghana's President John Dramani Mahama has secured a UN resolution declaring the slave trade (and it's lasting impacts) as one of the world's worst human rights abuses.
President Mahama stressed the importance of this resolution in the fight for reparations paid by the countries who profited from slavery.

I hate the constitution because they were never “the people” it was always crap from treaty-breakers. You don’t write “we the people” if you’re NOT the people. No one with power right now represents the people, much less is one of us. #landback #reparations #sovereignty for #natives and #africandiaspora

Expropriation from the European Jews transfered properties billions worth. From then on, the grabbed money and wealth mostly followed laws of ownership and capitalism. Only in #Germany, they grew into companies and assets in the realm of between €300 billion and €1 trillion.
In their book , Katharina and Zachary #Gallant write:
"Hitler didn't produce Zyklon-B and profit off of its use in the murder of millions: Degesh, Degussa, Henkel, and IG Faben did. Hitler didn't rip the shares of major companies from their Jewish owners, … major German businesses did… And it wasn't Hitler who took over houses and properties that had belonged to Jews through Aryanization, it was everyday Germans, many of whose families still live in those homes today."mock-up: https://znetwork.org/znetarticle/hitlers-nazis-and-how-germany-became-good-again/ 🧶

The #CollegeBoard, a powerful nonprofit, has been waging war w/ the administration of Gov Ron #DeSantis, a #Republican, since earlier this year when his admin rejected the College Board’s new #AfricanAmericanStudies course. The #curriculum included topics such as “#QueerStudies,” #reparations & the #BlackLivesMatter movement, & the admin objected, citing a #FloridaLaw limiting how #racism & other aspects of #history are taught in #PublicSchool.

Well done #LauraTrevelyan... this story of reparations paid & her move to work full time to increase payments to #Caribbean countries is a great story of 'putting your money where your mouth is'...
I'm sure they'll be some who will cyclically see her suffering from 'white saviour' syndrome, but I for one salute her actions; I hope she makes a real difference to those she's going to help secure #reparations for #slavery & historic exploitation

#Histodons: Can you share links or other resources for the process of writing #microhistory? I'm working on a #Quaker #reparations #history project for my Meeting and and would like to begin sharing some of the stories using this approach. A Google search hasn't gotten me any truly helpful writing guides, yet. Any recommendations are truly appreciated.
