The call for Reparations isn’t just about history; it’s about justice, healing, and building a liberated future for ALL people of African descent. ✊🏿This isn’t just about one group or one place. True, comprehensive reparations must address the systemic harms caused by enslavement and colonialism across the globe:
To Continental Africans: For the theft of resources, the destabilization of nations, and the brutal disruption of societies caused by the transatlantic slave trade and subsequent colonial exploitation.
To the Diaspora: For the foundational and ongoing economic, social, psychological, and cultural devastation endured by Africans in the Americas, the Caribbean, Europe, Australia, Asia, and wherever our people were forcibly dispersed.
This is a global debt, requiring a global reckoning. It means land, resources, economic development, educational investment, cultural restoration, and true psychological healing.The time for piecemeal solutions is over. We demand comprehensive justice for every generation, everywhere
