Glad to have been part of this phenomenal event with President of the #UnitedNations General Assembly @UN_PGA and @RacePowerPolicy founder @DarrickHamilton @TheNewSchool 🙌🏾🌍

[Annalena Baerbock @UN_PGA]

The question of reparatory justice is about more than addressing historical injustices. It is about accountability and the need for society to actively rid itself of racism, bigotry and systemic discrimination.

It is about building a future that is truly equitable and just for all.

I was honoured to deliver a special address to the @TheNewSchool’s Institute on Race, Power and Political Economy, as part of the 2024 Henry Cohen Public Lecture Series.
