OAS Heard Claim for Native Genocide and African Slave Trade
E-334 November 6, 2015
The reparation claim against some European countries—mainly Great Britain, France, and the
Netherlands—for the native genocide and the African slave trade between the 17th and 19th centuries was presented this week at the OAS by the Prime Minister of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Ralph Gonsalves.
At the OAS Permanent Council, Gonsalves asserted that “the quest for reparations is not conceived as a strategic confrontation against these European nations, although it is for us in the Caribbean a defining issue in the 21st century for justice, reconciliation, and the righting of historic wrongs.”
