Harvard University’s Legacy of Slavery: New Report Documents How It Profited, Then Tried to Erase It
Harvard University’s Legacy of Slavery: New Report Documents How It Profited, Then Tried to Erase It Kwabena Ofori Osei 66 Views • 4 years ago

Harvard University released a 134-page report this week that detailed the school’s extensive ties to slavery and pledged $100 million for a fund for scholars to continue to research the topic. The report documents dozens of prominent people associated with Harvard who enslaved people, including four Harvard presidents. Harvard commissioned the study in 2019 as part of a wave of schools reckoning with their pasts and the ongoing legacy of racial discrimination. “Harvard’s ties to slavery begin with the founding of the institution,” says MIT historian Craig Steven Wilder, author of “Ebony & Ivy: Race, Slavery, and the Troubled History of America’s Universities.” Wilder says that while this history is not new, Harvard worked for decades to erase its complicity in slavery. “We’re really only beginning to reconcile and to really struggle with the deep ties that this institution has to slavery,” he says.

Mining in Ghana: Environmentalists fight to stop deforestation Kwabena Ofori Osei 73 Views • 4 years ago

Activists in Ghana have launched a legal challenge to stop mining in a protected area.
That is after the government signed a deal with a Chinese company to extract bauxite – a mineral used to make aluminium products.
They say the move threatens the already endangered animals and plants.
