Quick recap---This meeting focused on a presentation by Siphiwe Baleka about reparations and African heritage at Langston University, Oklahoma’s only Historical Black College and University (HBCU). Siphiwe discussed the historical roots of the transatlantic slave trade, explaining how the 1452 Dum Diversas papal bull declared war on African peoples and authorized European colonization. He outlined how this legal framework led to the forced removal and enslavement of African ancestors, including those who ended up in Tulsa. The presentation covered the concept of "ethnocide" - the destruction of ancestral identity - and argued that reparations should be framed as war damages rather than just slavery reparations. Siphiwe also discussed the importance of African Ancestry DNA testing to reconnect with ancestral heritage and the possibility of repatriation to African countries. The session included a breakout discussion about making a "sovereign mind switch" to reclaim indigenous legal jurisdiction that predates European systems.SEE: www.balanta.org/news/tulsa-reparations-summit

BBC Africa Eye investigates the rise of xenophobia in South Africa and the violent targeting of migrants.

A network of anti-migrant groups is emerging across South Africa, spreading anti-migrant rhetoric and even attacking migrant communities. The groups blame illegal migrants for the state of the country’s economy, lack of housing and an explosion of drug abuse. But their critics accuse them of being violent vigilantes, who target some of the country’s most vulnerable people.

#bbcafricaeye reporter Ayanda Charlie gains rare access to Operation Dudula, South Africa’s most notorious anti-migrant group. Dudula say they are standing up for ordinary South Africans who have been let down by the government and deny allegations that they are a vigilante group who preach a doctrine of violence. As she takes to the street with Dudula members, Charlie not only hears xenophobic rhetoric but also witnesses small business owners from neighbouring countries being physically threatened, forced to hand over their business, and hears how Dudula intend to establish a political party to contest South Africa’s upcoming general election.

Their culture is rich and diverse, with deep historical roots and vibrant traditions like Irreecha and the Gadaa system. Their language, Afaan Oromo, is one of the most widely spoken languages in Africa, with an estimated 30 to 65 million speakers primarily in Ethiopia, but also in parts of Kenya and Somalia.
