Ghana's president met with a major international group this week to build a unified plan for reparations.
President John Dramani Mahama welcomed experts and advocates from Africa, the Caribbean, Europe, Latin America, and the United States. The delegation aims to create a single, intercontinental agenda for reparatory justice.
The group thanked President Mahama for his political leadership on the issue. The meeting in Accra is seen as a key moment for the global reparations movement.
Reparations seek compensation and other measures for the lasting harms of the transatlantic slave trade.
