We Still Charge Genocide International Tribunal

Human Rights & Justice

On October 22-25, 2021 the Spirit of Mandela Coalition hosted an International Tribunal charging the U.S. with human rights abuses against Black, Brown and Indigenous Peoples before a panel of nine jurists. This 2021 Tribunal stood on the shoulders of the 1951 Petition We Charge Genocide: The Crime of Government Against the Negro People,” submitted to the United Nations, and led by William Patterson, W.E.B. DuBois, Paul Robeson, and 97 others. Human Rights and Justice host Nkechi Taifa discusses this historic Tribunal on its first anniversary with Jihad Abdulmumit, chair of the National Jericho Movement and member of the Spirit of Mandela coalition.
