Ghana pushes for concrete slavery reparations

world

According to France 24, there's movement on three fronts across Africa this week. Leaders from the continent and the Caribbean have convened in Ghana for a landmark conference focused on reparatory justice—pushing for concrete measures on slavery reparations rather than symbolic commitments. Meanwhile, Taiwan has accused Kenya of bowing to Chinese pressure by excluding Taiwanese officials from an international oceans forum that wrapped up in Mombasa. And in Burundi, Congolese refugees sheltering at the Busuma camp are rallying behind their national team as it competes in the World Cup.
