UN Declares Transatlantic Slave Trade a Crime Against Humanity!
The image clearly shows the disgusting reality of the hypocrisy of the western world.
This is what IMPERIALISM is. Trying their best to forget, ignore and deny the centuries of crimes against humanity that build their wealth and fortune.

“Now we must remove the persistent barriers that prevent so many people of African descent from exercising their rights and realising their potential,”

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.

A quotation from Daniel Webster
At the moment when God in his mercy has blessed the Christian world with a universal peace, there is reason to fear, that, to the disgrace of the Christian name and character, new efforts are making for the extension of this [slave] trade by subjects and citizens of Christian states, in whose hearts there dwell no sentiments of humanity or of justice, and over whom neither the fear of God nor the fear of man exercises a control. In the sight of our law, the African slave-trader is a pirate and a felon; and in the sight of Heaven, an offender beyond the ordinary depth of human guilt.
Daniel Webster (1782-1852) American statesman, lawyer, orator
Speech (1820-12-22), “First Settlement of New England,” Plymouth, MassachusettsMore about this quote: wist.info/webster-daniel/80534…

CW: Chattel slavery for sugar and rum 🧶
In 1776, Scotsman Adam "Smith noted that the British West Indian sugar plantations were so profitable they their returns from rum exports, a byproduct of sugar production, paid for the entire overhead expenses of a sugar plantation. As far as Smith was concerned, this was an achievement without parallel in eighteen-century British imperial agriculture."
(excerpt from Seymour Drescher’s book "The Mighty Experiment: Free Labor versus Slavery in British Emancipation")

The West African country of Benin is granting citizenship to descendants of enslaved people in an effort to attract the Black diaspora, acknowledge its own role in the slave trade, and promote tourism. “By legally recognizing these children of Africa, Benin is healing a historical wound. It is an act of justice, but also one of belonging and hope,” Justice Minister Yvon Détchénou said at a ceremony in the city of Cotonou during which U.S. singer Ciara received her citizenship. Here's more from @AssociatedPress.

Gladstone Scion to Apologise for Slavery: Can Indian Upper Castes Too Look Within?
That Western capitalism had its first roots in the expropriation of slave labour is of course by now an established fact of history. Mr Gladstone’s conscientious lead is admirable, one that many others could emulate – even in the former colonies. Badri Raina writes.

Meanwhile, trying to put a price on Britain's involvement in #Slavery continues....
Patrick Robinson of the #UnitedNations has calculated that the UK owes around £18 trillion to the 14 countries most impacted by the #slavetrade.... but accepts that this is likely an underestimate.
If countries *could* find a mechanism to force such a claim (and countries could go #bankrupt), the UK's days might be numbered - a bit like #wilko?

@kennwhite I wrote an article about this when the tweet/delete fiasco occurred in 2018.
"Friday 9th February 2018. HM Treasury on Twitter: “Here’s today’s surprising #FridayFact. Millions of you helped to end the slave trade through your taxes.” @hmtreasury"
My parents, my siblings and I effectively paid the enslavers of our ancestors for being human traffickers: we had no choice. It's not a celebratory FridayFact for me.

All That Jazz: CIA, Voice of America, and Jazz Diplomacy in the Early Cold War Years, 1955-1965
The jazz ambassadors represented America at a unique historical juncture. The Cold War, the African-American civil rights movement, and the emergence of 40 new African and Asian nations created the context in which the jazz ambassadors projected the optimism and vitality of black American culture throughout the world. Through the jazz tours and through the VOA broadcasts, the music of the jazz ambassadors reached from Kabul, Leningrad, Damascus, and Tehran to Baghdad, Bombay, Karachi, and Kinshasa. The music reached even into the prisons of apartheid.
All over the world, the U.S. came to be associated with jazz, civil rights, African-American culture, and egalitarianism—not because the jazz ambassadors claimed to represent a free country, but because they identified so deeply with freedom struggles everywhere. In a fundamental way, the musicians were cultural translators who inspired the vision and shaped its contours, and they asserted their right to “play for the people.”
The story of jazz and the State Department, the CIA, and Voice of America is not the story of a nation standing apart from and unsullied by imperial power. It is the story of an America deeply implicated in the machinations and violence of global modernization: the slave trade that forced millions of Africans to voyage in chains to the Americas; the U.S. involvement in CIA-planned coups in Iran, Iraq, Guatemala, and the Belgian Congo; and the arming of military tyrannies in Egypt and Pakistan. These events established the context for the tours.

Other historians reach lower estimates of the figures involved in the Atlantic trade, and hence argue that the effects on the political economy of Africa were more limited. Had widespread slavery existed long before the growth of the European slave trade ? How important was the trans-Saharan traffic ?

The quote "his family had ties to the #slaveTrade" sounds like a tenuous link, tbh.The question should be did he actually benefit from those ties? Many have #family ties to all sorts of unsavoury stuff, and that honestly means nothing to us; definately not a sign of endorsement or of benefit. In fact, in many ways it is a hindrance.
Where can we learn more about this one?
