The demand for Reparations by Africa and Africans in diaspora is a watershed
in the ongoing dialogue between the peoples. of Mrican descent and the erstwhile
Euro-American slavers and colonialists aimed at repairing the breech that was made
through the mode and consequences of their intervention in our history. This is with
the objective of de-mystifying the largely spurious perception about our contribution
to worJd civilization and developments particularly in an international environment
in which rich nations are predominantly of the Euro-American descent and the poor
ones are predominantly of Mrican descent. And, to put into proper perspective, the
historical, cultural, economic and political conditions in which stagnation in less
developed nations is a consequence of the mode by which development has been
achieved in the advanced nations. The gap between the two,' underlines the logic of
the demand for restitution.
