The UN’s human rights chief has urged countries to confront the legacy of slavery and colonialism and to make amends for “centuries of violence and discrimination” through reparations.

Addressing an urgent debate on racism and police brutality at the UN human rights council in Geneva, Michelle Bachelet called on countries to examine their pasts and to strive to better understand the scope of continuing “systemic discrimination”.

She pointed to the “gratuitous brutality” on display in the killing of George Floyd, a 46-year-old black man who died in Minneapolis in the US on 25 May after a white police officer – since charged with murder – kneeled on his neck for nearly nine minutes.

This symbol of “systemic racism … has become emblematic of the excessive use of disproportionate force by law enforcement, against people of African descent, against people of colour, and against indigenous peoples and racial and ethnic minorities in many countries across the globe,” Bachelet said.

“Behind today’s racial violence, systemic racism and discriminatory policing lies the failure to acknowledge and confront the legacy of the slave trade and colonialism,” she said.

She stressed the need to “make amends for centuries of violence and discrimination, including through formal apologies, truth-telling processes, and reparations in various forms”.

Wednesday’s urgent council debate was called in response to Floyd’s killing, which was caught on amateur video, sparking worldwide demands to address systemic racism in the US and around the world.

African countries are calling for the council to ask Bachelet and other UN rights experts to investigate racism and police brutality in the US, but potential support for their draft resolution is unclear.

The US itself withdrew from the council two years ago, but a number of its allies are uncomfortable with the country being singled out in the text, according to observers of the process.
 
Time to get out of the UN!

And kick them out of New York!

I agree 1,000 percent. (not a typo). Too much money spent to support a less than useless organization. Leave the U.N. Tell them get the heck out of dodge and never to darken out door step again. Time to quit supporting or participating in an organization that does nothing but stab us in the back.

Sure. Just as soon as you show me one that WE enslaved! Not what some dead long ago ancestor did. AND, those whose ancestors enslaved European whites for many, many years give all of us reparations! Yeah, that ought to do it.
 
I think we need to hold a mirror up to the UN. How many thousands of women have been raped by UN soldiers? How many 10's if not 100's of thousands have died while UN soldiers sat by & watched? How many babies has the UN been happy to exterminate (abortions)?

I challenge everyone. Give me 2 examples where the UN was key to preventing even a fraction of the crimes/deaths that they have actually committed? What is their 'work product'? Real results? Anyone?
 
It only gets worse.

>The killing of African Americans like George Floyd and Rayshard Brooks by police officers is a systemic problem in the US which requires profound changes that go way beyond prosecutions and police reforms, according to the UN special rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions.

Agnès Callamard, a human rights and press freedom expert who led the UN inquiry into the 2018 murder of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, is urging US authorities to listen to the demands of nationwide protesters who have taken to the streets since Floyd was killed in Minneapolis on 25 May by a white police officer kneeling on his neck.

>“This was an arbitrary killing in which the state and police officers must be held accountable,” said Callamard in a telephone interview.
>“Of course we need to go after each case because through accountability we can start shifting the policy. But the historic George Floyd protest movement has underlined that political, civil, social and economic rights are intertwined not separate, and that these structural and systemic conditions reflect [a person’s] vulnerability.”

Callamard said:
>“As an international human rights expert this is such a learning moment because it lays bare the necessity of moving beyond narrow definitions, and technicalities of police reform, as they won’t be sufficient for meaningful systemic change.”

>“Every aspect of this case makes my stomach turn,” said Callamard, who said she had identified multiple possible violations after watching the video footage repeatedly. “Mr Brooks was asleep, he had not committed a crime per se, why did they need to arrest him? He was running away and the Taser could not be described as posing a threat. Why did the officer not run after him, or pick him up later, why did he get his gun out? Nothing about this makes any sense from a policing standpoint.”
 
Meanwhile UN member China has tens of thousands of political prisoners in their gulags and kills them by the thousand. They use them as forced labor in factories and even harvest their organs, while alive, to sell.

Whaddaya got to say about that, Agnès?

And muslim countries have slaves! Cricket noises about them too.
 
And if anyone thought that Europe is "safe"

The president of the European Commission, Ursula Von Der Leyen, said that EU must tackle racism. She also said that despite 10% of European population are from ethnic minority backgrounds all EU’s top jobs are held by white people.
By the way, she is a member of the European people’s party, a conservative party. They just want to replace us.
What to do?
 
I agree with reparations. If anyone in the US was held as a slave, they deserve some type of Reparations and it should come from whoever held them as a slave. I would be willing to go one step further. If your immediate parents where held as slaves in the US, you should be considered for reparations as long as you or your parents assisted in the Prosecution of the slave owners. Any further back than that, there have already been hundreds of programs to address the results.
