JFC. Just get these fuckers out of our country. Am so sick of this organization that's sole purpose is being as anti-American as possible.

Wish they'd go build their HQ in the mid east somewhere, then see it blown up by the terrorists they love to support.


U.S. owes black people reparations for a history of ‘racial terrorism,’ says U.N. panel - The Washington Post

The history of slavery in the United States justifies reparations for African Americans, argues a recent report by a U.N.-affiliated group based in Geneva.

This conclusion was part of a study by the United Nations' Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent, a body that reports to the international organization's High Commissioner on Human Rights. The group of experts, which includes leading human rights lawyers from around the world, presented its findings to the United Nations Human Rights Council on Monday, pointing to the continuing link between present injustices and the dark chapters of American history.

"In particular, the legacy of colonial history, enslavement, racial subordination and segregation, racial terrorism and racial inequality in the United States remains a serious challenge, as there has been no real commitment to reparations and to truth and reconciliation for people of African descent," the report stated. "Contemporary police killings and the trauma that they create are reminiscent of the past racial terror of lynching."

Citing the past year's spate of police officers killing unarmed African American men, the panel warned against "impunity for state violence," which has created, in its words, a "human rights crisis" that "must be addressed as a matter of urgency."

The panel drew its recommendations, which are nonbinding and unlikely to influence Washington, after a fact-finding mission in the United States in January. At the time, it hailed the strides taken to make the American criminal justice system more equitable but pointed to the corrosive legacy of the past.

"Despite substantial changes since the end of the enforcement of Jim Crow and the fight for civil rights, ideology ensuring the domination of one group over another, continues to negatively impact the civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights of African Americans today," it said in a statement. "The dangerous ideology of white supremacy inhibits social cohesion amongst the US population."

In its report, it specifically dwells on the extrajudicial murders that were a product of an era of white supremacy:

Lynching was a form of racial terrorism that has contributed to a legacy of racial inequality that the United States must address. Thousands of people of African descent were killed in violent public acts of racial control and domination and the perpetrators were never held accountable.

The reparations could come in a variety of forms, according to the panel, including "a formal apology, health initiatives, educational opportunities ... psychological rehabilitation, technology transfer and financial support, and debt cancellation."

To be sure, such initiatives are nowhere in the cards, even after the question of reparations arose again two years ago when surfaced by the groundbreaking work of American journalist Ta-Nehisi Coates.

Separately, a coalition of Caribbean nations is calling for reparations from their former European imperial powers for the impact of slavery, colonial genocide and the toxic racial laws that shaped life for the past two centuries in these countries. Their efforts are fitful, and so far not so fruitful.

When asked by reporters to comment on the tone of the American presidential election campaign on Monday, the working group's chairman, Ricardo A. Sunga of the Philippines, expressed concern about "hate speech ... xenophobia [and] Afrophobia" that he felt was prevalent in the campaign, although he didn't specifically call out Republican candidate Donald Trump.

"We are very troubled that these are on the rise," said Sunga.

The U.S. is reeling from a week of violence. Two police shootings of black men have sparked nation wide protests. Now thousands around the world are marching in solidarity with U.S. protesters and the Black Lives Matter movement. (Jennifer Hassan, Jason Aldag/The Washington Post)


1.9% whites owned slave now these were sold to slave trader by Black Africans who sold Black Africans That were weak and not very sharp or they would not have been captured. Their descendants live far better than most Africans do now and some have risen to the top by hard work and using their brains, you did not see them in the riots why well they were at work. 70% that were arrested had out of state id's which this whole BLM thing reeks of George Soros and his globalism as does this UN story

Im so sick of this stuff. Its on tv all day long. News. Sports news. Etc.

Funny thing, Ive never once witnessed any of this oppression or holding back of blacks or even mistreatment. Everywhere Ive ever been, work place, academic world everybody goes out of their way and bends over backwards for blacks so they arent accused of any "racial" wrong doing. Blacks get special treatment. Extra chances. Coddling. And its unlike anything for any other people group.

Pretty sure reparations were paid in the form of over 20 trillion in welfare as well as the establishment of the country of Liberia for former slaves who did not wish to remain in the US.
