HISTORY MADE AT THE UN: A Victory for Justice!
Ahenfo Radio Denmark - Kings Radio reports a monumental shift in global history. The United Nations General Assembly has officially adopted Resolution A/80/L.48, declaring the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade as the “Gravest Crime Against Humanity.”
📌 The Key Highlights:
• The Declaration: For the first time, the UN recognizes racialized chattel enslavement not just as a tragedy, but as the supreme international crime.
• The Champions: Led by the Republic of Ghana and backed by the African Union, this resolution demands reparatory justice and the return of stolen cultural artifacts.
• President Mahama’s Stand: Ghana’s President John Dramani Mahama hailed the move as a “safeguard against forgetting” and a vital stand against the erasure of Black history.
• The Opposition: While 123 nations voted YES, the U.S. and Israel (along with Argentina) voted NO, opposing the framework for legal reparations.
• The Abstentions: Much of the EU and the UK abstained, highlighting the ongoing global debate over historical accountability.
