BREAKING NEWS! Around 123 countries at the UN have just voted that African enslavement was the biggest crime against humanity. This is an enormous victory for the #reparations movement, led by Ghana.

UN votes to recognise enslavement of Africans as 'gravest crime against humanity'

Of course, 🇮🇱 🇺🇸 🇦🇷 voted no against this resolution, but a big group of 52 countries also abstained, mostly from 🇪🇺 (and yes, that includes 🇳🇱 as well). So much for showing remorse and turning a blind eye against their own history. 🤦🏽‍♂️ 🤦🏽

@clickhere @ryanjess77 You should perhaps look into the history of your country and see how the English and the Americans treated them.

@kDelta I see you're attempting to dicksplain my own history to me. Don't bother.
