The U.N.’s Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent recommends African Americans receive reparations for years of “racial terrorism.”
Last week, the working group, which reports to the U.N. High Commissioner on Human Rights, presented its findings to the U.N. Human Rights Council.
The team was invited by the U.S. government to visit the country from January 19-29 to offer an assessment. Cities visited include Washington, D.C.; Baltimore, Maryland; Jackson, Mississippi; Chicago, Illinois; and New York City.
