GHANA TACKLES THE SLAVE TRADE

For the first time the African nation of Ghana has requested reparations from the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade that occured on its shores.  Ghanaian Pres. John Mahama  is leading the charge to also have the United Nations designate the slave trade as a crime against humanity for objectifying the West Africans who were sokd as property.  He says he has the support of the African Union and CARICOM.   This action reflects a change as  historically African Americans have raised the issue of slavery centering on the U.S. Ghana's engagement expands the movement globally. The U.S. has not backed the initiative.

Ghana to Make Official Case For Reparations Ghana is leading a 2026 UN resolution campaign to recognize the transatlantic slave trade as a crime against humanity, demanding reparations from former colonial powers. Backed by the African Union and Caribbean nations, the plan includes financial compensation, return of stolen cultural property, and environmental restoration, focusing on addressing the lasting economic gaps caused by slavery. Key Aspects of Ghana's Reparations Strategy: UN Resolution (March 25, 2026): President John Mahama is set to table a resolution at the UN General Assembly classifying slavery as the "gravest crime in the history of humankind". Three Main Pillars: The proposal focuses on direct financial compensation, the return of artifacts, and restoration of affected communities. International Support & Opposition: While the African Union and CARICOM support the initiative, Ghana's foreign minister noted that the U.S. and European Union have indicated they will not support the resolution. Goal: The initiative aims to force a global reckoning with the legacies of slavery and colonialism, addressing the "enduring consequences" of these historical injustices. Ongoing Advocacy: Ghana is anchoring the African Union's broader efforts for reparations (2023-2036) and recently collaborated with the NAACP to build global support, notes a Facebook post from the Embassy of Ghana USA. The initiative aims for justice and healing, tackling the economic consequences of the slave trade.
